It is. It’s been confirmed several times.It was.
if true, it's Joever for 5 nodes in 4 years.
All of Intel's enterprise CPUs were meant to be on Intel nodes. It was only consumer CPUs that would get tiles from TSMC.I thought ClearWater Forest was meant to be Intel 18A?
They have to be coz of how many steppings they need to work out the kinksAll of Intel's enterprise CPUs were meant to be on Intel nodes.
So now the Feds are looking hard at Intel's health as a company? Good grief. Took em long enough.Here comes another conundrum for Intel, they sure need the money but not the scrutiny:
Tax payers deserve to have their money spent on TSMC. Intel should be cut off. Cruel but they deserve it after the MTL hot lots fiasco and the RPL oxidation snafu. Can't keep pampering the stupid kid even after he's gotten an F in everything he was supposed to excel at.Intel’s CHIPS Act fund delayed by officials — Washington reportedly wants more information before disbursing billions of dollars
One more piece of bad news for Intel.www.tomshardware.com
Maybe you misunderstood. Taxpayer money should be spent on the TSMC fab on US soil. Or GloFlo. Or literally anyone other than Intel. Intel has shown what they do with investor money already. What makes you think they will treat taxpayer money as more holy?Man the US government is lucky you aren't doing their strategic thinking for them.....
Informed by Intel's recent track record of past three years.but your logic is wack.
Well at least now they’ve suspended giving out dividends and I doubt they’re going to repurchase shares. From my understanding there are strings attached, and that the US has altered some of the conditions for disbursement of funds to be provided to Intel.Informed by Intel's recent track record of past three years.
Intel hasn't received anything yet from Germany either.Who cares about US dotation. I am more interested in what will happen to Intel's fab in Germany. I think Germany invested 8 billion, so a foreign company will build a semiconductor plant there, yet we don't even know what will be produced in It.
I see, didn't know that or more like I was too lazy to check.Intel hasn't received anything yet from Germany either.
Maybe because Intel wanted more than it was initially planned: https://www.reuters.com/technology/...ls-demand-subsidies-chip-plant-ft-2023-06-11/Intel hasn't received anything yet from Germany either.

Consoles APUs are hardly a high margin business. There is a reason why AMD won those contracts when they were near bankruptcy. Intel is not that desperate.https://www.reuters.com/technology/how-intel-lost-sony-playstation-business-2024-09-16/

quite painfull for Intel and for GPU division ... I am just not sure how they come to $30 billion revenue
- Intel lost PlayStation 6 chip contract to AMD in 2022, sources say
- Dispute over profit margins blocked Intel-Sony deal, sources say
- PlayStation deal could have generated $30 billion in revenue, sources say
I also wonder about that.........

Actually Intel needs that kind of deals desperately. As they provide also silicon manufacturing they should have been easily undercut AMD. Only if is their process ready on time. Intel probably couldn't make the deal because they didn't know if their process is ready on time. With tsmc producing the product their silicon should have comparable area efficiency to AMD or they cannot compete with low margin prices.Consoles APUs are hardly a high margin business.

How do we know the intel offered their own nodes? GPU tiles for the foreseeable future are going to be on TSMC.Actually Intel needs that kind of deals desperately.

They need volume for their plant. To compete with AMD with same manufacturer they could only make profit with competitive margins if their silicon efficiency is at least same level as AMD. We know it isn't - they could only compete with their own manufacturing cabability.How do we know the intel offered their own nodes? GPU tiles for the foreseeable future are going to be on TSMC.
