News Intel's next-gen Nova Lake CPUs will seemingly use a new LGA1954 socket

It could be hurting them in HPC and high-end cloud workloads. Don't forget that X3D exists in servers, also.

I've actually been surprised that AMD hasn't been releasing more in this market. Genoa-X was relatively limited and there were no Zen 5 models.

I'm waiting to see what their next HPC chip looks like, if they make one.

This is a very good question and with how AMD's APU seems to have flipped the script in HPC I don't know that this is a market Intel is going to play in period. Despite being extremely important Intel's GPU business seems like a giant question mark outside of IGP.

They have MI300, though. Its fp64 capacity is aimed squarely at the HPC market.

MI300A doesn't use 3D V-Cache as far as I'm aware.

If I had to guess, very likely a combination of two things: initial volume and lease cycles in the big server market.
