Increased production by Intel of Coffee Lake processors

Intel increases the production of its Coffee Lake processors, to solve the stock problems, moving its factory in China to the production of eighth generation processors.

The recent launch of the Intel Coffee Lake has not been positive in all aspects, there is one aspect in which it does not exactly stand out. Intel's bet on which the Coffee Lake is based is to offer six-core processors more powerful than the eight-core AMD Ryzen, something that has been achieved, the problem lies in the stock, which is very limited and the company It has problems supplying the market, but is working on improving the stock of these processors, with an increase in manufacturing.

The latest from Intel brings an improvement in power, but there is no news in terms of PCIe lines, for example, but what matters is the raw power, but it is worth having a powerful processor if it is almost impossible to get a i7 8700K, i5 8600K or i5 8400. The Ryzen is a great competition and the AMD APUs are already close to reaching the market, therefore, Intel has put a second factory to work in the production of the eighth generation processors , something that will not be noticed until next year.

Currently, the Coffee Lake are assembled in the Malaysian plant, but the company has started manufacturing from Chengdu in China, to streamline production and assembly, to improve production. What this allows us to see is that the Malaysian and Chinese facilities are completely the same between them, therefore both processors with the same architecture can be manufactured, which means that Intel will stop producing processors from other generations. On December 15, the stock will increase, but we should not expect miracles, it will be next year when we see a large increase in stock, possibly between mid-January and early February.
