Since AMD’s latest CPUs are now 4 nm, and even Chinese SMIC can make 7 nm chips. Intel seems stuck at 10 nm for a few processors

What is this post? First of all do you think only AMD has access to TSMCs fabs? AMD doesn’t make their own chips, they fabbed by TSMC. Intel can and already is doing this.

Intel already has 4nm chips and are launching next month with new Meteor Lake laptops. Those new chips use chiplets and have some TSMC chips onboard. Intel now has the ability to pick and choose different nodes to meet the mission and makes them super flexible moving forward. What we saw with 10nm delays are looking to be very behind Intel moving forward. If they can into a bind they can choose to go with the TSMC design or whatever. They’ve already done this, changing from TSMC back to Intel design.
