The width of a silicon atom is about .2 nanometers. The article mentions 3 nanometer architecture. That is only 15 silicon atoms across.

Obviously this technology is about to reach its endpoint.

I was looking into putting together a new pc after 6 years from the last time I did.
Prices for cpu’s and motherboards have gone way up.
I figure $1,000 just for the cpu and motherboard to start.

AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 12-core, 24-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor $614
The AMD-Ryzen 7 5800X 4th Gen 8-core Desktop Processor Without Cooler, 16-Threads Unlocked $447

I will wait as my pc is not really slow at all.
If yours is then add more ram and get a SSD drive.
