  1. Before you decide to write yet another dumb comment about how there are other costs than the bill of materials, consider the fact that 100% of the intended audience of this video is aware of that fact. You are not adding anything to the discussion. Go away.

  2. Question – probably stupid:
    Context:
    The IOD is less populate and can use less "dense" components, meaning a transistor with a "defect" might be still working because it's BCE are broad enough to just not be influence enough to be actually defective.
    Hence the question: How much of an influence has structure size on the yield rate? if true, Q#2: Could the IOD therefore have a better than calculated yield rate?

  3. The packaging of the CPU, design, manufacturing of the box is ignored here! Most people do not have access to O.E.M. 7950X that are purchased in 1,000 quantities!😊

  4. Why is everyone talking about TSMC raising its prices by 20%? That's only $ 10 – $15 if you think about it. Should have minimal impact on overall retail prices of cpu, gpu, etc…

  5. Great to do the same calculation for the new gen GPUs, especially the new Navi 31 chiplet design given it uses the same technologies. An interesting comparison would be how much it would cost if it wasn't a chiplet architecture in a very rough estimate for both cases.

  6. Yeah it takes 3 months to make a single chip. That 3 months of overhead not to mention the R&D it took to develop new fabricators. A single machine costs 150 million and they probably have to replace them as soon as possible to keep developing more precise machining. The level of precision on these machines is bonkers. They also have to use a lot of different high purity gases for the lithography so that's another material cost and the building has to have such clean and pure air inside of it because a spec of dust could ruin a chip so I would be willing to be there's a lot of crazy air ventilation and purification going on.
