Well, given 2 chips, one made with 95nm etchings and one with 65nm etchings the 65 will cost less, and will produce less heat and use less voltage.

The thing of it is that this 65nm stuff is pretty new, and the price for the machines that manufacture with 65nm are still too expensive for sony or microsoft to invest in now, just like the price of BD players are still too high for many consumers. Either way, expect all three console companies to upgrade eventually.


Sony and Microsoft don't invest in fabrication. They contract stuff like that out.
