Huawei and presumably China's Semiconductor Manufacturing International Co. (SMIC) have submitted patents for a chip production method called self-aligned quadruple patterning (SAQP). The ultimate aim is to produce chips on a 5nm-class process technology, according to a Bloomberg report. The very same method was a major reason for the failure of Intel’s 1st Generation 10nm-class process technology, but Huawei and SMIC have no choice but to use quadruple patterning as they

Broadcom has demonstrated that it is perhaps the world's largest processor. But for what application? When we visited TSMC's events, we were always shown a deck of multi-chiplet processors that use the company's chip-on-wafer-on-substrate (CoWoS) packaging technology and feature near the reticle limit (858mm^2, 26 mm by 33 mm) compute chiplets. We cannot take photos of the deck,

Unpatchable Apple Silicon vulnerability could leak encryption keys

Serving tech enthusiasts for over 25 years.
TechSpot means tech analysis and advice you can trust .

In brief: Hardware-based security flaws have become more frequent over the last several years but have mostly affected Intel and AMD processors. Now, Apple joins those ranks with a recently discovered vulnerability that causes Mac M-series CPUs to expose encryption keys. Since it is hardware-based, there is little users can do besides keeping macOS updated.

A recently published paper describes a flaw primarily affecting Apple Silicon that allows attackers

Apple M-Series CPUs Affected by "GoFetch" Unpatchable Cryptographic Vulnerability

A team of academic researchers has uncovered a critical vulnerability in Apple M-series CPUs targeting data memory-dependent prefetcher (DMP) that could allow attackers to extract secret encryption keys from Macs. The flaw, called GoFetch, is based on the microarchitecture design of the Apple Silicon, which means that it cannot be directly patched and poses a significant risk to users' data security. The vulnerability affects all Apple devices powered by M-series chips, including the popular M1 and M2 generations. The M3 generation

Can Snapdragon X Elite finally make Windows on Arm a gaming champ? Qualcomm thinks so

Serving tech enthusiasts for over 25 years.
TechSpot means tech analysis and advice you can trust .

Highly anticipated: Intel and AMD have dominated the Windows gaming landscape for decades, but Qualcomm is looking to shake things up with its latest Arm-based processor. At the recent Game Developers Conference (GDC), the company made some eyebrow-raising claims about the gaming capabilities of upcoming Snapdragon-powered Windows laptops.

According to Qualcomm engineer Issam Khalil, most existing x86 Windows games should "just work" on
