Don't forget that the IO die (which is actually much larger than the CPU die) is still on Global Foundries 14nm, so more of most of these chips is 14nm than is 7nm. This increases the number of 7nm chips AMD can get which definitely helps keep up with the (seemingly) massive demand.
- noir_lord 7y agoThere is real demand, I'm building a Zen 2 based system for a co-worker and I had to try three different places (online) to get my hands on a 3600 the other day. Damn thing is faster than my 2700X (which I'll be upgrading to a 3900X when I get back from holiday). AMD is straight killing it at the moment.
