Hey guys,
I was just thinking about this and trying to figure out how these semiconductor giants make products with billions of transistors work (with no defects?). It seems almost unimaginable that you can make a CPU/GPU without a bad transistor somewhere.
Is there some kind of redundancy to mitigate this type of defect? Can CPUs or GPUs have absolutely zero defects? And if there are defects, I'm guessing this is what will cause crashing/blue screen?
I think the concept it pretty interesting, but I haven't been able to find out much about it. Anyone here know?
