don't understand

umm, ive been seeing people talk about 90nm and 130nm on AMD 64 CPU's im building a comp soon with Abit AV8 939 socket and 939 socket CPU but does 90 NM or 130nm matter or what does it do? lol

 

[mlr]

thats a good question id like to know that (anyone)

90nm produces less heat and is a bit faster I think (1,5% ?? )

 

[intercodes]

SiZcO,

EDIT:Italics removed

Every processor cosists of billions of on/off switch like called transistors. Now my processor has around approx 37 billion transistors.
90 nm,130nm are the technology used to create those tranistors in a processor.I have no idea abt those technology or what it does...

ofcourse yeah...90nm has lot of transistors in it...and so its quite faster..

You will be able to use 90 and 130 nm chips on a socket 939 it just requires a bios flash. And intercodes, when you type in italics it's a bit hard to read.

okie..and it seems 90 nm technology allows transistors of size 50nm to be built into the processor.
