Is Moore's Law DOA?
- RantyDave 8y agoGiven that it's been with us for forty+ years it's hard for it to be dead on arrival. I've been hearing the words "physical limit" since 33MHz buses arrived on 386's and yet somehow physics keeps being changed. That being said, I think the change to 7nm and onwards is different - this is the first time the economics of the whole thing has been questioned. And maybe a couple of billion transistors per chip is enough? Perhaps it's time to advance along some other axis?
