Intel: By the end of the year could launch Comet Lake-S processors based on 14nm
The big idea from Intel's marketing geniuses is to launch Comet Lake-S processors by the end of the year, based on 14nm lithography.
This year Intel has not released anything relevant to the market in terms of processors. To date there are only empty promises of processors at 10nm and pats on the back that do not add much. The AMD Ryzen 3000 have been uncomfortable for Intel, but the Ryzen 3000 have destroyed them. It seems that now they would be finalizing the launch of the Comet Lake-S by the end of the year.
During this year the company has pulled tortico marketing to say that they are leaders in gaming and office automation, or as they call it, “the real world”. The truth is that in the real world its processors are expensive, have very high temperatures and after five years, they are still at 14nm. These are things you shouldn't be bragging about.
Comet Lake-S, Intel's 14nm 'solution'
Everything seems to indicate that Intel this year will continue in 14nm for Comet Lake-S, the new desktop processors. It seems that the company is saving the 10nm card for the desktop for 2020. They still intend to imitate AMD, launching processors and graphics under the same lithography (AMD released Zen2 @ 7nm and Navi 10 @ 7nm on July 7)
Rumors indicate that some video game development studios and some software companies would already have these processors. At the moment we do not have much more data, and it is that Intel is not to give much information. You just have to see the regrettable treatment of the shortage of processors that was made from the company.
'Winter is coming' have thought from Intel and what better than to launch a processor with 10 cores and 20 threads in 14nm. The user can have a processor and a stove and save a lot on the electricity bill. How good are these from Intel, who look so much for the customer.
Intel has certainly rested on its laurels and after years of market supremacy 'they can afford it'. Now, whoever believes that this supposes the decline of Intel has it clear. AMD has encountered the perfect storm: good processors and incompetence from Intel. When they get down to coffee and wake up, we can have an interesting battle.
