QUOTE(Eidilfitrix @ Mar 18 2012, 12:00 AM) The A5X chip was designed by Apple but manufactured by Samsung. Apple did not "design" the chip in anyway. It's an ARM chip. They just repackaged it to their name...just like A4. |

QUOTE(andrekua2 @ Mar 21 2012, 07:51 AM) ARM is a company that churns out design. They dont make chips. If you have your own design team, you can licence the design from ARM and then make the alteration as much as you like. The core remain the same but you can alter the pipe length, number of cores etc. Yes, ARM design the chips. And Samsung has the best manufacturing capability and process for mobile chips. So please don't say Apple capable of designing any chip(the other guy, not you). It's hogwash.ARM is the Intel of the mobile CPU world, except they don't do the manufacturing unlike Intel. Nvidia has just started into the mobile cpu world with the Tegra chip a few years back, now has some in roads (but tegra isn't selling so well actually, maybe too expensive....Nvidia always sell their stuff very high price, which explain why MS ditch them for the XBOX360) and Intel will put up their medfield (atom based) mobile cpu to compete soon.
