During its presentation on financial figures for the fourth quarter of 2020 (Intel turned over $20 billion from October to December / above expectations). 2020 sales were also strong: $ 77.9 billion, the highest Intel has ever achieved.

Financials aside, upcoming CEO Gelsinger expressed his satisfaction with the company's improvements with its 7 nm process. He indicated that Intel has plans to introduce its first products based on 7nm technology in 2023 - still later than originally planned. Still, in line with the delay, the company announced in mid-2020.

Gelsinger also mentioned Intel would frequently use third-party manufacturers, "given the wideness of the portfolio." He is confident that the majority of products will still be produced in their own factories by 2023.

As much as we don't like Intel, we need that they have CPUs on that 7nm.
Competition is good for consumers, more offers, lower prices.
I hate to say it, but as a homelab geek is kinda hard to find affordable ECC RAM servers on AMD platform. If anyone can show me some links to prove me wrong, go ahead.

We need intel to throttle just a bit longer lithography wise to allow AMD to grab enough money for successful R&D and then let the heated battle begin.

I wonder about the tsmc info from yesterweek
with big+little cpu structure they can probably make arm cores at tsmc and still use their own fab for big ones
doesn't amd make the i/o die on 12nm for r3000/5000 ?

that is odd.
I swear YT channels say they're scared fabless of amd
