AMD to Consider Building Chip Sets for Partners
By
AMD is expected to complete a new state-of-the-art facility in Dresden in 2006, which will free up manufacturing space that will allow the company to begin manufacturing their own chip sets.
If chip-set vendors farm out chip-set manufacturing to AMD, the company would benefit in various ways. For example, AMD would generate additional revenue from manufacturing capacity that would otherwise sit unused. It would also have increased control over the process of manufacturing chip sets, which are used in tandem with AMD’s chips to control the flow of data around a system.
