He is talking about sandpaper, Sandpaper is measures in "grit" the bigger the number the more fine the sandpaper is.i.Angel said:5000 grit? 2500 grit? Sorry I don't understand...

The way "grit" is measures is actually how many little peices of sand are in each inch, or maybe centimeter, I'm not 100% sure, but its one of those units.

Wrong.i.Angel said:That's a nanometer. I wasn't saying that that's what they use to measure the grit.
Process size wasn't always measured in nanometers. Back a few years ago, you would always see the process size written as .13µ, .18µ or .25µ and so on.SC7 said:That's the "Process size" of the transistors which is measured in nanometers.
Yea, true, which is 130, 180 and 250nm respectively. They used to be even 350nm.Clutch said:Wrong.
The greek letter Mu (µ) is used as a prefix, meaning micro-. So, that means that a µm is a micron or a micrometer (both sayings are acceptable).

That's nothing compared to the 10μ (10,000nm) process which the Intel 4004, 4040 and 8008 were fabricated on.SC7 said:They used to be even 350nm.

There are videos on about 4/7 of the steps. With this cooling system you could really go crazy OCing without worrying about overheating.
