It's "interesting" that I never read any posts about how unfair it was when AMD was using TSMC 7nm to beat Intel. Makes you think, it does.

- sudosysgen 5y agoUnlike AMD for 5nm, Intel was free to fab their chips on 7nm at any time and chose not to. It's not an analogous situation.
- smoldesu 5y agoProbably because TSMC 7nm =! Intel 10nm
- Dylan16807 5y agoBecause Intel had full control of their own design and fabrication. And while they had problems advancing their fabs, they also could have bought some TSMC 7nm capacity if they wanted to. That's fair. On top of them earning a loss by sticking with stagnant designs for so long.
