what is the limit?
7nm?
and after this? we wont get more power on a single chip?


Its getting extremely hard to keep shrinking fab processes. Designers have to become a lot more creative with their chip designs.

But if you want to look at the potential future, you have to accept that there is only so much we can do with silicon based chips. There are experimental alternatives that could completely turn the chip race on its head, but we are at least 20 or so years away from those.
