No, the 18A external customers are amazon and Microsoft, base on rumours Intel is stop to promote 18A to new customers, but doesn't mean they are scrapping 18a foundry, 18A still be used in Intel product. and old promised customers
Intel 18a for Laptop and Server
TSMC 2nm for Desktop PC
??? for XE3 Celestial Discrete GPU
something like Intel 18a Yr 2026 total production output may not afford all production line demands.
still have to see yield rate, if produce 100 wafers but 80 wafers are failed, it is still be considered fail, although that 20 wafers are very powerful.
We are tired to see this kind of marketing strategy news already, please provide us the fact and actual result, we have seen too many news & power point slides
Not really, if behind the story is supported by Donald Trump government, i don't think AMD dare to block. we know Trump, AMD also know Trump , later Donald Trump will look for AMD ;)
Jim Keller is a chip god, not the scammer or stock analyzer who manipulating $, not the childish Intel boy or childish AMD boy who keep fighting in forum , i believe what he said.
Pat is doing good actually, intel 18a is nice, but intel board cannot wait anymore…. The problems should be intel ex ceo who refused to buy EUV and keep stuck in 14nm technology.
