Why don't they just slap a heatsink on this and make a round socket to go with it?

Well they would but 80% of the plate would be defective and it'd cost $100,000

Eventually they will, since that'll be the only way to increase cpu power.

>LGA360
not bad

You know I never really understood the point of circular wafers for rectangular CPUs. Don't they end up with a ton of waste for all the cut off dies around the edges?

I think that they have this stuff that they squish flat and it forms a circle.

They do
The reason is because they forge cylinders of silicon and then cut in slices to work with it

see Silicon is forged as cylinders

I think it's also easier to coat circular wafers evenly.

It would have a TDP of 10 kilowatts

Did they finally finish your mom's wafer?
Or something.

medal benis :D :D

*metal, *penis
And it's not metal, it's silicone you idiot.

Its a doggie dog world out there, man.

Lurk more

I think they say ingot or crystal not cylinder.

the yields would be something like 1%

>silicone

Literally what the fuck is that thing ?

fucking newfag kys yourself

It surprises me how there isn't a porn with this as insertion.

There is a limit to how large a CPU can be due to the fact that electricity actually needs time to move place to place, which could lead to desync, meaning that data in one place of the chip could be processed too quickly or slowly, and no longer match up with the rest of the CPU. Multi-CPU systems rely on a really slow (in relative terms) bus to connect them, so sync issues are unlikely, since the CPU has to wait for the bus anyway.

A wafer from which chips are cut out, each group of rectangles on its surface is potentially a CPU die.

I own a cylinder of silicon, and this stuff is insanely dense. A chunk a bit larger than your fist weighs at least two kilograms. If you wanna insert it somewhere, you have to be able to lift it first.

Girls could just sit on it, no?

>Many companies attempted to develop WSI production systems in the 1970s and 80s, but all failed. TI and ITT both saw it as a way to develop complex pipelined microprocessors and re-enter a market where they were losing ground, but neither released any products.

>Gene Amdahl also attempted to develop WSI as a method of making a supercomputer, starting Trilogy Systems in 1980[1][2][3] and garnering investments from Groupe Bull, Sperry Rand and Digital Equipment Corporation, who (along with others) provided an estimated $230 million in financing. The design called for a 2.5" square chip with 1200 pins on the bottom.

>The effort was plagued by a series of disasters, including floods which delayed the construction of the plant and later ruined the clean-room interior. After burning through about 1/3 of the capital with nothing to show for it, Amdahl eventually declared the idea would only work with a 99.99% yield, which wouldn't happen for 100 years. He used Trilogy's remaining seed capital to buy Elxsi, a maker of VAX-compatible machines, in 1985. The Trilogy efforts were eventually ended and "became" Elxsi.

The main problem is that any defect in the wafer might make it unusable as a whole.

Yields were better than that I thought.

MEDAL PEBINS

All wafers have defects, its just getting them super small enough and uncommon enough to generate good yield.

Go back to rebbit you fucking retard

I figured it was because the lenses used for the lithography were round.

>silicon is no the same as rubber
the more you know

Retard of the hour goes to- (you)

>there are people on Sup Forums right now who don't know how CPU's are made

better call your mother i got something for her

What am i looking at?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Czochralski_process

Damn those are some nice tits

mono-crystalline silicon ingot
this gets sliced into wafers

is everyone on Sup Forums a software weenie? from this thread it looks like nobody's building anything physical.

>The process is named after Polish scientist Jan Czochralski,[1] who invented the method in 1916 while investigating the crystallization rates of metals.[2] He made this discovery by accident, while studying the crystallization rate of metals when, instead of dipping his pen into the ink, he did so in molten tin and drew a tin filament, that later proved to be a single crystal.

I bet he was drunk.

Because building a CPU from logic chips is a pain in the ass and DIY lithography was quite expensive to get into last I checked.

Building a CPU from TTL isn't really that hard if you have the tools to put it together, making it do something really useful is another story however.

The Magic-1 is probably the greatest piece of computing autism I have ever witnessed.

maybe they could do better nowadays, by designing chips to have non-working bits fused off. I know Intel, AMD, and Nvidia all do this.

Thats like saying its easy to manufacture a Ferrari 458 as long as you have a factory and everything that comes with it.

I masturbated to this picture

>Building a CPU from TTL isn't really that hard if you have the tools to put it together
Sure, that part's relatively easy. Designing it on the other hand isn't. I don't see many people taking the time to build a CPU out of TTL chips if they didn't design it. Most of the people who want something more hands on/in depth than just assembling a modern computer will build something around an older CPU that's still available such as the Zilog Z80 where you get the same end results with less work and better documentation.

Not really, the Magic-1 that he's talking about didn't involve any DIY lithography, just a metric fuckton of wire wrapping/soldering. Was also built by someone who works as a botnet engineer for Google.
