Very cool.AMD rocks
8:13 It looks like the guy is using an IMac. lol. It would be hilarious to find out that AMD uses Intel chips for their computers... And it would be kind of sad too...

WOW it takes over 2 months to make one CPU that is unbelievable I thought maybe a couple of days but 2 months its amazing how they keep them in stock they must start manufacturing like a year ahead of the release date.

Just the sheer volume of them that can be made per wafer probably. Look at how many wafers of silicon you can get from the first giant thing they are cut from.


Just a random thought....i wonder how many blank stares you would get from people if you told them their computer was made of sand:p

Yea I never thought about it like that but that still doesn't seem like a lot.

I know it shocked me when the said sand I had to rewind it to make sure I heard it right lol.

It is unbelievable how complex a central processing unit is. And these processors are nothing compared to the marvelous intricate human brain.

Thank you for posting it was a very interesting video.
