Sad the way they've fallen. Hopefully it is only six months.

Why is this news? Its been happening since 2016, as you can see by the "again" on the end of the headline.

If it’s only a year, I have a bridge in NY I need to unload. Who’s interested?

again, and yield problems again ... I think Apple's shift away from them will have far further consequences than the analysts seem to think.

 

[Kostask]

is anybody getting the feeling that Intel's issues with yields are not technical, but financial? As in they don't want to make the financial committment to actually bring their processes up to current day standards (7nm & 5nm) with acceptable yields?

This does seem to vindicate Apple's decision to go with a TSMC produced CPU (although it could equally have gone with TSMC-produced AMD chips).

AMD is scheduled to use TSMC's 5nm process for Zen 4 in 2021, when Intel will still be on 10nm. That sounds bad enough, but 10nm seems to be a problematic process for Intel, as evidenced by its highest performing chips still being produced on 14nm. So it's probably even worse than it sounds.

Intel feels like the Galactic Empire from Foundation. It's already fallen, but it has so far before it hits the ground most people haven't quite realised it yet.

And to add to this, the 10nm cores are barely more efficient than the 14nm ones. Which is weird to say the least.
