Intel Arrow Lake CPUs Rumored to Drop 20A Node, Utilizing TSMC 3nm Instead
- akmittal 3y agoIntel foundry is lagging from like 10 years, will US giving them billions help in any way?
- yomlica8 3y agoIt helped fund those stock buybacks for a little while longer.
- photonbeam 3y agoIts wild to me that Intel continues to pay a dividend
- mighmi 3y agoIntel recently reduced it's dividend by $.50 (2/3), reducing costs by $3B/yr which is already a massive move. There are however financing aspects which discourage them from totally removing it - as a collapse in share price (would impact their ability to finance loans, pay employees with shares etc. so it's important for them to manage things within certain channels. That said, the market reacted rather positively to the dividend reduction (which happened around their low) although correlation is difficult as the whole market overall has risen a lot since February.

- tester756 3y agoBasing on the screenshoot from the article, if they manage to pull off 18A, then they'll be ahead / on the same as TSMC
- meepmorp 3y agoThat's a very big if, considering how many times they've slipped on process nodes in the last decade
- brucethemoose2 3y agoWell that is worrying. This is not an industry where delays and misses work.
- Detrytus 3y ago18A process is allegedly ahead of schedule (moved from 2025 to 2024), so perhaps Intel will skip 20A completely?
- akmittal 3y agoI will take everything intel says with grain of salt. They have been saying from last 10 years that they will catch up with competition in next 1-3 year. I will believe when i see.
- ksec 3y ago>They have been saying from last 10 years that they will catch up with competition in next 1-3 year. They haven't loss their node leadership for 10 years.
- brucethemoose2 3y agoThis. Intel has yet to earn their roadmap credibility back.
- Havoc 3y agoQuite surprised the US gov is letting them do this. Would have thought it has sufficient national level strategic importance (chip wars) that they'd block it via any means necessary
