I totally expect intel to offer a RISC V chip in the next decade. Made by them, competing with ARM for low power.
- r00fus 5y agoI totally don't, unless they can create a nice moat. Intel doesn't play well if it can't prevent others from playing in its space. Perhaps they'll try to do another WinTel combo with RISC-V? Sounds like MS can just do it on their own.
- vineyardmike 5y agoI think the goal would be to sell packaged up RISC-V IP for manufacturing on their fabs (to chip designers). If they want people to use their fabs, they'd do well to provide some pre-made IP that works well that can be included easily in bigger designs. The goal is to make money as a fab, not make money as a chip seller to OEMs.
