- fpoling 6y agoYes, but another reason is that in flash only tiny amount of cells are active at time. So even with much bigger cells that are required for reliable 3D stacking and more heat production per cell it is still very ok.
- themule 6y agowe are starting to and beginning to stack transistors on top of each other. It is a heat dissipation issue but it seems like we will be done.
