Apple will also glue the chips, preparing up to 40-core 3nm processors

Apple recently introduced up to 10 core M1 family processors for Macbooks. But it also needs more power in larger machines, so information on how it wants to achieve this is coming to light. Further enlargement of monolithic chips is no longer advantageous in terms of yield, so forms such as AMD (for Ryzens / Threadrips / EPYCs) or Intel (Ponte Vecchio) and others will glue the chips into one unit. TSMC has been doing this for its partners for a long time.

In the future, Apple will introduce up to 40-core processors for Mac Pro machines, manufactured by the 3nm process at TSMC. For these, relatively standard values ​​of desktop CPU consumption can already be assumed (say closer to AMD than to hungry Intel). This year, this should be preceded by a conglomerate of two silicones, still produced by the 5nm process, states Bloomberg.
