(cpu from middle of wafer)

How would I know?
Why do they even bother doing lithography, wasting both copper and photoresistant solvents on the edges of the wafer that don't even form a complete CPU?

Literally this?

Because, Goyim, you have to spend money to make money :^)

They can sell that half a CPU for like, 20 bucks.
Is it really true that they have only 1 kind of die and they're selling you a defective quad-core with 2 faulty cores if you're buying a dual core i3?

>copper and photoresistant solvents
you know how cheap that shit is compared to the cost of trying to draw dies on the edges perfectly?
>>55644216
Yes
It both saves the cost of a different producrion line and the loss in defective models
Look for bios flashable GPUs also, not to mention the 4(8)gb AMD RX 480
