Chips on the V1/V2 blades were BE100 - gen 1. Chips on the V3 cubes were BE100 but shrunk - gen 2. Chips on Tubes are BE200s - gen 3.
V3 cubes.. huh? I've never heard of that. I was under the assumption that they started developing Gen2 (~65-90nm) and it got scrapped in favor of 40nm.
Cubes... Its just what I called them [regarding V1 and V2 blades]. Even if there wasn't a shrink, the W/GH dropped from 10 to 6.5 which was large enough to consider it a non incremental step. Anyway, why do people get so hung up on my unofficial, colloquial naming schemes?
