They continue to add transistors to newer processors. It is a good sign that someone keeps track of them and writes documentation on how to use all these new transistors.
- Cyph0n 10y agoI heard they added a couple of transistors to the latest Intel chips. One of the transistors hasn't been documented yet, though, which is unlike Intel.
- ethbro 10y agoI'm imagining the documentation for an individual transistor that extends all the way up the stack... and thinking about Escher for some reason.
- mycall 10y agoThis makes me wonder how many undocumented transistors are on the chips -- there because nobody knows why.
- andromeduck 10y agoApparently Nvidia had to drop VBIOS a bit early because it started having issues but they no longer had enough people who knew how it worked to continue supporting the feature.
