Intel Announces 10nm SuperFin Transistor – Roughly The Same Level Of Performance Uplift As A Node Shrink

Intel held its Architecture Day 2020 for the press on August 11 and revealed quite a few technological innovations but the star of the show for architecture fans was the company’s SuperFin process enhancement. Intel joked about their ++++ improvements on 14nm and revealed a new FinFET type for 10nm called SuperFin which allowed them to gain several plusses worth of improvement in one go. According to Intel and the benchmarks they provided, the improvement in performance is roughly equal to one node shrink. Intel’s 10nm SuperFin transistor achieves ~17.5% performance uplift and significantly higher clock speeds compared to vanilla … Continue reading Intel Announces 10nm SuperFin Transistor – Roughly The Same Level Of Performance Uplift As A Node Shrink
