Quite a debate here, about... well, not a big story. AMD allready outsourced lot of CPUs to Chartered, TSMC is another story - as is Fusion, which (based on what we know about it's concept and target area) is the reason why it does makes perfect sense to me to outsource it to company which has a great experience and yields with production of GPU/IGP and I/O chips for AMD.

well i was already banned today because somebody reported me as a spamer after only seeing one of my posts in GN, had he looked at my post history first he would have seen that i had posted a bunch in news topics.......had the admin looked b4 hitting the spamer bann button he would have seen i wasnt a spambot....

If you've got a problem speak with a moderator in a PM. Don't clutter up the news section with "woe is me" drama.

already did, and it was more of an ironic post not a bitch or "woe is me" i dont know why you would try and start up a fight/arguement over a comment simply pointing out that i already got slaped by mistake ones.....

you read it as "woe is me" i ment it more as "meh shit happens" and "people should do a little research befor them make statements"(or in this case report somebody as a spambot)

i would take this to privat, but i really think as a mod IF you had a comment like this to make to me or anybody, you should have taken you own advice and taken it to PM's insted of "stiring the pot"

not attacking you mind, just pointing out that nobody was getting all bent over it, not even more, w1zzard insta banned me after getting a spam report, then after he got my email he reverced it and eventuly got most of my posts back, again SHIT HAPPENS.

meh, this is way off topic and off the line the thred was on, so maby you or another mod should just delete the offending off topic posts?

and now for some hummor to defuse any "hurt feelings"

“Oh! Come and see the violence inherent in the system! Help, help! I'm being repressed!”

monty python quotes FTW ;)

oh another of my favorites that kinda fits this line

“I don't wanna talk to you no more, you empty headed animal food trough wiper! I fart in your general direction! You mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!”

I agree, that's a good explanation, that since TSMC manufactures Radeon, they could make it manufacture Fusion as well, since Fusion is a CPU + GPU.
