Fighting the black market: crypto-locks for CPUs, other ICs
By Joel Hruska | Published: March 09, 2008 - 10:21PM CT ARS Technica The cost of first building and then updating fabrication facilities has forced a number of semiconductor companies that once owned their own foundries to pursue asset light fabless strategies. A fabless semiconductor company develops its own technology and chip designs, but pays a separate, dedicated fabrication facility, such as TSMC, UMC, or Chartered, to produce the chips. The fabless approach has saved integrated circuit (IC) design companies a great deal of money, but it has also enabled the rise of a thriving black market in counterfeit chips. |

Nebojsa Novakovic at the Inquirer has taken a look at Intel's D5400XS "SkullTrail" motherboard, some beast!From INQ: AMD WAS the first to push the idea of dual-socket high-end PCs using optimised flavours of its workstation/server platforms, with the 4x4 QuadFather units late in 2006. An answer to Intel's quad-core rollout then, 4x4 - two times dual-core setup based on an Asus SLI mobo - was never seen much in public, with the limited units available only in selected markets, and even then hard to get. It did achieve stunning memory benchmarks out of its total four DDR2-800 channels, too. |
