Fucking insane.

To be fair, the 1.6 nm is a label that has absolutely nothing to do with the feature size.

As the article says, 1.6 is the same as the last process but with backside power delivery.

It's weird that Intel got grief for 14, then 14+, then 14+++ but TMSC does the same thing, lies in their marketing by calling it 1.6, and everyone is happy.

Yea, it’s marketing jargon for sure. My comment still stands, because this technology is amazing.

Yeah it's amazing. But it is how funny no one called Intel 14++ amazing despite doing the same as TMSC is doing now, plus not lying.
