ATI Technologies' CEO Talks About Transition to 0.11 Micron
http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/video/d...929004713.html
ATI Technologies' CEO Talks About Transition to 0.11 Micron quote: ATI Technologies' co-founder and CEO, Mr. KY Ho said last week that his company was planning a very aggressive transition to 0.13 and 0.11 micron fabrication technologies. This is the first claim of such kind coming from an ATI top executive, as the company is generally very cautious and its decision not to manufacture the high-end RADEON 9700-, 9800-series of graphic processors using 0.13 micron technology, but stick to mature 0.15 micron process, allowed the firm to leave its main rival NVIDIA behind in terms of performance and production costs... Transition to 0.11 micron technology will probably start in the second half of 2004, about a year and a half after the first 0.13 micron chips left TSMC foundry. Hence, all next-generation ATI's VPUs will be made using 0.13 micron technology, while the future generation graphics products, such as code-named ATI R500, will be manufactured using 0.11 micron technology. It is also possible that ATI will make a less complex graphics processor for mainstream or value market segment using 0.11 micron technology for evaluation the process in the second half 2004. |

Never. R420 will be their first large, high-end chip using .13nm.

Current rumors have it at next spring. 1H04 is a safe bet.
