- dotBen 6y agoAnd this might be the old production trick where one part of the core fails QA and so they shut it out and make it a cheaper part. The GPU parts might be the tightest silicon and highest rate of failure so this approach reduces waste.
- slavoingilizov 6y agoBy "trick" you mean the only approach every chip-maker has been following for decades? Literally every single one. It's called binning.
- compiler-guy 6y agoThe gp is using “trick” not with the nefarious connotation, but more along the lines of “hack” or “clever idea”.
