My understanding is that they screwed up the transition badly to EUV. They originally were planing to skip the 1st generation of machines. The machines are bespoke and made in low volume. They expected to be able to push their older machines using multi-patterning to make smaller geometries. Everything went wrong. EUV machines came slowly and their multi-patterning didn't work out nearly as well as they anticipated. Management failure led them to that point, and then management couldn't plot a course out. The exec before Pat purchased a mess of future 3nm production from TSMC just before he left that is being used for Lunar lake now. Pat is doing his 5 nodes in 4 years to get them back to the cutting edge on things mfg in house.

Also intel has apparently somehow gotten some non high-na EUV machines that it is using for intel 4 and intel 3. I don't know if these are considered 2nd generation machines, or if they paid billions to jump the line somehow. If anybody knows the answer to this, and exactly when they got the machines, I'd like to know.

>>102156665
oh yeah. I vaguely remember hearing that intel had a tremendous amount of trouble using tungsten for its wires. Old school chips used aluminum sputtered onto wafers for wires, but as wires got thinner and smaller, it wasn't good enough. That was the switch to copper wires, but copper diffuses into silicon, so it has to be protected by a jacketed layer. This means the entire wire isn't copper, only the center, so the resistance isn't quite as good as pure copper. Intel moved to tungsten because although its resistance isn't as good as copper, it does not need quite as much protection from diffusion, so the net resistance of the wires is better than copper. But tungsten has all sorts of problems, for example apparently it is brittle. This was a 10nm problem iirc.

I'm not in the field, and this is all from hazy memory, so if anybody knows better, please chime in.
>>
>>102156302
Intel miss on 10nm process, Intel hope don't need EUV machines meanwhile Intel was the first company on use EUV for chip production as experiment scale.

AMD start in 2017 with Ryzen launch one chiplet for 8 core and glue one chiplet for I/O and RAM controller allow glue 4 chiplets for Server chips, AMD will produce a lot CPU chiplets and use some for Desktop and the rest for Servers.
Big CPU chips are expensive and hard to produce, chiplets allow unify Desktop and Server market with glue cheap and mass production chiplets.

AMD move to 32,64,96,128(compact zen) cores in next generations and is moving to 196 and 256 cores per chip, AMD outperformance Intel in 2-3X at lower price for Server chips in one or two CPU socket servers.

ARM Holding start to licenses ARM chips for server and Amazon start to build own chips from ARM designs other mega cloud companies will follow it, but AMD murder the ARM servers startups.

Intel need heavy reduce margins on servers for big buyers to compete, AMD destroy the main income for Intel, meanwhile intel fail in every other project, become unable to compete Nvidia on GPU or AI.

The problem is Intel destroy margins for survive on market share on servers against AMD.

Apple moving to ARM or Windows ARM laptops don't impact it or AMD on Desktop, but AMD murder Intel on Servers.

I don't think so. Intel's stock tanked immediately after a shareholder presentation in which intel said their outlook was bad and they were missing their previously stated projections. (In business this can be bad, particularly for a company that is trying to turn itself around). In that presentation nobody even asked about 13th or 14th gen problems. This was after the GN stuff was out and known.

>>102156302
Intel was such a behemoth that it'd taken years to get into crisis… had they didn't dive head first into the concrete by blindly jumping into the GPU market.
What other anons said about failed transition to 10nm and AMD competition are two of the three biggest reasons why they are in their state right now, the third one is their failed GPU market.
Their CPU, even with all of those R&Ds, are still profitable. But their GPU division was such a massive money sink it's not even funny. And despite all of the efforts, they STILL failed to capture the market because scalpers flooded the market with secondhand GPUs.

I feel absolutely no sympathy for Intlel, but I dread a world where CPUs become a monopoly. Jesus Christ, GPUs aren't even a monopoly and yet Nvidia more than doubled the price for their vram starved cards because they control the market, imagine what AMD will do if they become a literal monopoly. Get ready to pay $3k for your next x86 CPU if you don't want a shitty phone processor.
>>
>>102157183
They still have to compete with themselves so it takes time for prices to rise. They can't release a 3k CPU that's 10% better than their previous gen $400 CPU.

intel is still going to make CPUs. the absolute state of tech illiterate and ignorant primates of this board.
>>
>>102157038
Because even a 2c Zen 4 CPU/2 CU RDNA 2 APU would mercilessly CURBSTOMP virtually all low end ARM SoCs (ie dogshit one in raspberry pi 5).

Being such a low end chip to bin I imagine it wouldn't cost AMD more than ~$20 to produce. Use guts from a Fire HD 8 tablet and it seems reasonable that the whole thing would sell for around $100.

They even sold their headquarters' land to lease back just to get that capital to survive and someone somewhere from AMD looking back said they had less than 30 days of operating cash at any one point before the release of Zen, it was quite precarious. Intel isn't even close there but it is no longer in a great state. I really hope Pat manages to put it together with Lunar Lake's launch and that will start their comeback.

That really depends on your expectations. Everything (including what Tom Petersen said recently) suggests that we'll see around a 50% performance improvement over Alchemist. That'd put the B770 at roughly RX 6800 non-XT performance. Hardly impressive, but it'd be okay if the price was low enough. Yet I see people suggesting it's going to compete with the 4070 Ti and maybe even the 4080, which is just setting yourself up for a massive disappointment.

I gotchu brother. English syntax isn't always straightforward, but anon-sams's sentence is a bit mentally taxing to read as a native speaker. We can re-arrange the sentence structure a bit and add/del a few words to make it easy to understand:

>Apple [subject]
>increment [action verb]
>"the prices for their chips" [object]
> +
> "and do more heavy price segmentation"

now move the "for every generation" to the start of the sentence instead of at the end,
[Result]:

>Every generation, Apple heavily increments the prices on their chips & keeps doing more price segmentation within those new segments.

Pawning off their long-term assets for short-term gains and gambled everything on 10nm node on the foundry side.
They didn't expect TSMC fueled by Apple's capital to leapfrog them. They got too complacent on sticking with monolithic chips on server/HPC side when tehy should have made the shift to chiplets back with 14nm node had a troubled start.

Probably friends in the US government. Regardless of what people think here, ASML is basically a US company. They may make the machines, but EUV technology is licensed to ASML by the US government because it was developed at LLNL. I get the distinct feeling that at some point Intel might be the sole beneficiary of the DoE's work in "plasmonic nano lithography", aka lithography below the diffraction limit. Given the stage of Taiwan now, I doubt the US government would license this to anyone that's not an American company. The problem with plasmonic lithography is that it has potentially all kinds of classified applications because plasmonics can be used to do all kinds of fun things on the defense contractor front. I imagine there is a contingent within the DoE that is attempting to figure out how to bring it to the consumer world in a manner that won't letting the Chinks on that you can build a gamma ray laser with the same methods

The point of the Pi isn't that it holds a candle in performance, it's that it does what it does at like 3W for the entire system. Ryzen sucks dick at scaling downwards in power, even their monolithic APUs require ~12W idle just for the CPU and double that for the motherboard assuming you have the lowest end mobo with the least components, least VRMs, and a platinum rated PSU. And that's idle, not load, where the 65W TDP Ryzen actually uses 110W measured from the wall.

yeah, good luck putting that in a mobile device.

Those use laptop SoCs with no chipset, minimal i/o, no pcie beyond m.2 slots, LPDDR RAM, etc. I was talking desktop computers and the figures come from my own measurements from a 5600G system and a 2200GE system (both are monolithic dies).

You might argue that that it's unfair to compare a full ATX board to a SoC and I should use the SoC ryzen instead, but the thing is, an i3-13100 in a H610 can achieve sub-10W idle power. So it's just AMD sucking dick in that category. The 2200GE I have can't even go lower than C2 core residency while Intel can go down to C10, this is one area where Ryzens are fucking pathetic, and the chiplet based cpus are even worse in this regard as the separate IO chiplet uses twice as much power.
