Xbox 2 CPU To Be A 65nm Part

Published by

TeamXbox reports that Last month, we posted an announcement made by Sony and Toshiba (one of the two Sony?s partners for the PlayStation 3) telling the world that trial production of chips (the cell) using a 65-nanometer manufacturing process would begin this March, with commercial production of the final chips expected for summer 2005.



In that story we also suggested that the Xbox 2 CPU could also be a 65-nm part since both Sony and Microsoft are going head-to-head for the next round in ?The Console Wars.?

Today we can confirm that the Xbox 2 CPU will also be built using a 65-nanometer manufacturing process.The 65-nanometer technology will allow them to break the 3 Ghz barrier for sure and get closer to the 5 Ghz mark
