New video with @semianalysis.bsky.social and beautiful die shots from STEEL🤗 youtu.be/t8bxkCKNiuA?...

I did a 52 min deep-dive video into everything AI & power with @semianalysis.bsky.social Lot's of work went into that & I think it's worth a watch 👉AI is running out of Power www.youtube.com/watch?v=nB4w...

I’m going to IFA Berlin and will be there tomorrow, Friday and Saturday. Let me know if you want to meet!

Visual explanation of how the Apple M5 Ultra is designed (it's 2x M5 Max)👇

What's an Apple "S-core" or a "all new P-core"? While size isn't everything, silicon area per CPU core can tell you a lot. That's why I made this handy chart👇

Anyone have any idea what these three funky looking parts on an Apple A4 SoC could be?

Rare Apple silicon family picture 😩 Top to bottom: M5 (MBA), M4 (mac mini), M3 (MBA), M2 (mac mini) & M1 (MBA)

Finally got one 😌

How did you become a billionaire? I started with a trillion dollars and lost some money...

BREAKING: Elon Musk lost over $60 billion in a single day! Leading experts now project him to be broke in 21 days⚠️📉

I love the colors on this Apple M1 die shot from @fritzchensfritz.bsky.social. I honestly think it deserves to be in an art gallery. It gets even better when you zoom in 😍

New logo animation, what do you think? Good or bad?

It’s finally here, the arena magazin Silicon coffee table book! Lots of amazing siliconpr0n inside 🫪

9 micron is a lot. The pink sheet below is 3 micron 🫥

Imagine it's 2026 and you are looking to build a new PC. Let's see... AM4 - check. DDR4 - check. 5800X3D - check. RTX 3060 - check. And some say time travel is impossible🤔

In the Windows Task Manager, under "details", you can see if apps are running natively (Arm64) or with a wrapper (x86/x64). Interestingly, the only non-native apps are "MicrosoftEdgeUpdate.exe", "OfficeClickToRun.exe" and "AsusOLEDShifter.exe".

Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme (front) vs Ryzen 7 5800X3D (back). The difference is crazy. And it’s laptop vs desktop too.

The A19 Pro is hidden in a secret compartment on the iPhone Air logic board. But with ac lot of convincing I was able to get to it. Will this chip power the MacBook Neo 2?

Taking apart newer iPhone logic boards requires you to heat up the PCB, because RF and SoC boards are a sandwich fused together with solder. It takes >150C and some patience. But the results are great 😍

I’ve taken apart so many iPhones with cheap tools, I thought I deserved an upgrade. Let’s see what this can do!

Working on some amazing die-shots from @fritzchensfritz.bsky.social. Crazy high-res too (as expected)!

A truly generational leap: iPhone 3GS logic board on the left vs iPhone 4 logic board on the right.

The new Intel Core Ultra 5 250K Plus is surprisingly good, with great gaming & productivity performance and efficiency. Increasing the Foveros d2d clk really helped a lot. ARL is actually good now. If only it wasn't the last gen for Socket 1851... (benchmarks by @computerbase.de)

A18 Pro & MacBook Neo Deep-dive t.co/YeMGMGffbq

This is what peak productivity looks like 🚀

At what point is the #MacBookNeo too powerful? Would a A19 Pro with 12GB be too close to the Air? Or do you think premium features (Force Touch trackpad, backlight keyboard, better screen, MagSafe, etc.) are enough differentiation?

The new Apple coaster arrived. Great product!

The new Apple MacBook Neo is powered by the A18 Pro, a mobile chip that is packaged using TSMC InFO-PoP. The DRAM sits on top of the SoC, it's a single, closed package. That's why the MBN comes with the same amount of 8GB DRAM as the iPhone 16 Pro. Same chip, same package.

What’s in the box?? #AMD

Microsoft's new Maia 200 is a massive chip with ~825mm² die size, that's close to the reticle limit! N3P is a guess, but I doubt Microsoft is using N3E in 2026. My initial analysis👇

Question: what chip is that? Hint: you might get sued if you say it ;)

Updated NVIDIA RTX 50 Super line-up leaked 🚨 - RTX 5090 Super 16GB - RTX 5080 Super 8GB - RTX 5070 Super 6GB - RTX 5060 Super 4GB

So apparently Intel added my 18A/PTL/CWF video to the official "resource guide". I promise, I'm not a paid shill😅 PS: you can watch it at www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3xp...

Prost from the Hofbräuhaus 🍻

My best investment the entire year so far

Next-gen Intel microchips are almost build like lego. I love the modular tile-based design of Panther Lake & Clearwater Forest. Video coming soonTM.

Next-gen ASML wafers are smaller, but very yummy.

The one and only OG 🍏
