The Sony PS3 Cell Processor Will Go 65nm in 2007

Ken Kutaragi, Sony Computer Entertainment President, revealed today in an interview with Japan's Impress Watch that the PS3's Cell processor will make the switch to a 65nm manufacturing process in 2007. The move to a smaller die means that Sony will save some money on each processor and that the processors will consume less power.

The Cell is in production at IBM's Fishkill and Sony's Nagasaki fabrication facilities. Currently, the chip is being produced using a 90nm process. Switching to a 65nm process will reduce costs, potentially leading to a price reduction of components that use the chip.
