The best for us customers is the latest TSMC node!Yeah, especially for our wallets given the fact that TSMC is producing every single existing chip out there for all major players (Intel, AMD, Apple, Nvidia, Qualcomm...).

Quote from: Hotz on Yesterday at 10:32:50AMD being the one which creates the chip architecture (because it looks like it's superior and more efficient, and Intel ditching its own) and Intel becoming the actual chip-hardware manufacturer. I think that would be the best outcome for us customers.

Add with carry x86 instruction an example.

Exactly this. Intel coasted on prior success from the Core and Core 2 era from 2010-2014 for far too long, and lost the ability to compete despite having 5x the number of employees as AMD (2023 filings) and spending far more in R&D.
Now, without 18A in sight, they want billions from the USA CHIPs act to build manufacturing that would compete with where TSMC was two years ago.
They have been dropped by Apple, outfoxed by AMD, and like many others are years behind Nvidia in AI.
The only way to recover now without a bailout is to shed more employees, including the leadership team, and focus on new process nodes and designs with far less organizational bloat.
Quote from: Enma45 on November 04, 2024, 11:10:34Intel has been doing its job poorly for 3 years in the face of competition that has surpassed it, in this case AMD with its PCs and laptops has known how to react to the market by manufacturing products far superior to those of Intel since the appearance of Ryzen. American taxpayers have continued to finance Intel without seeing the expected results and the US Government wants to save a company by giving it millions of Euros without receiving anything in return, this is crazy and even more so when there are executives who take almost $1,000,000/year.
