and demonstrating what a little competition can do ... AMD responds with
8core chip for less than $150 ... and 8core chip running at 5ghz bundled
with liquid cooling for $282.

note while haswell-e has moved to 22nm, the above amd chips are still at
32nm (same as ec12).

Intel 14nm coming along:

earlier this spring when IBM was trying to unload its chip business to
globalfoundries (globalfoundries chip business spun off from amd in
2009)

Samsung and GlobalFoundries buddy up for 14nm, while IBM heads for the
exit

so it is possible that amd might skip 22nm and move next to 14nm????
