Scuttlebutt is that they launched prematurely to time it for CES and because execs saw their sagging stock value post-DeepSeek and wanted to bump up revenue numbers for 2025Q1
- magicalhippo 2y agoWell it was already delayed from a H2 2024 launch IIRC, but yea really needed even more time in the oven. Now all that's missing is for AMD to f up their launch too. Would be nice if Intel could get up there so we can get some high-end rivalry again.
