Intel: The ridiculous 10nm, adds to the ridiculous graphics cards and Optane

New failure of Intel, which is forced to delay the 10nm process for at least a year and for the third time, launching another processor in 14nm, to continue making money in spades and offering a ridiculous performance improvement.

The Intel accounts have been presented, which of course continue to rise, among others, because to install a Coffee Lake processor you have to change the motherboard by obligation, since the company has blocked the installation of these processors on motherboards by BIOS Skylake and Kaby Lake. A full-blown scam and monopolistic practices and foul play against AMD, has ended up leaving the company's karma on the ground and that is paid for and now they are starting to pay, with the delay for the umpteenth time of 10nm. All action have a reaction.

The ridiculous Intel, the king of the world's manufacturing processes, has delayed the 10nm manufacturing process for the umpteenth time and launched the Whiskey Lake processors, guess in which manufacturing process? Well yes, in 14nm. But not only that, for these new processors you will have to buy special motherboards, because they will put eight cores in an LGA 1151 socket processor, they will block the installation by BIOS on all LGA 1151 motherboards and as an asshole, to buy processor and motherboard and again historical benefits for Intel, who by the way, is no longer the company that manufactures the most processors.

They have been ample, as always and the 10nm process, as well as Specter and Meltdown have taught the company a lesson, who we hope will put their feet in the tie ... hahahaha. To solve all the shit they had put under the carpet they have given Raja Koduri a blank check, to develop graphics cards, another field where Intel has only made a fool of themselves and to fix the 10nm problem they have signed Jim Keller, developer of the Athlon and Zen and who helped Koduri develop the Radeon HD 7000 Series.

Intel processors are not what they used to be, thanks to AMD, which has nailed it with Ryzen, processors that offer good value for money and that have forced Intel to release six-core processors for gaming. Intel had a monopoly, but every month AMD is cutting back, because Intel processors are expensive and their performance, despite being good, has the problem of having to change motherboards in each generation, something that AMD has known take advantage of and have developed a socket that will accommodate at least three generations of processors.

Not only in graphics cards and processors does he know how to make a fool of himself, let's stop at Optane. The SSDs with 3D XPoint memories, which were going to discontinue the SSDs with NAND Flash memories and were even going to be able to be used as a hard disk and RAM memory, have been left in shitty units to do the cache functions or what is the same , speed up the system for an absurd price, since for the price of an Optane and an HDD, we have an SSD and HDDs are affordable.

As will be the failure of the Intel Optane units, which have launched the Core i5 + and Core i7 +, in a kind of rather regrettable marketing strategy, which can mislead poorly informed users. Someone who has no idea will see this and think that these processors are better, but they really are the same as the Core i5 and Core i7, with the difference that they have an Intel Optane in the box. Really?

To solve these failures, they have had to pull their wallets and give money to Raja Koduri and Jim Keller, taking them away from AMD and thus harming their main competitor. The case of Jim Keller is curious, because he was in Tesla in charge of Artificial Intelligence, so they have had to put an indecent amount of money in front of him. I do not criticize Keller for taking the dough, we all would have done it, it is the monopolistic practice of Intel that he retaliates.

Samsung is the largest processor manufacturer in the world and has started manufacturing chips for cryptocurrency mining ASICs and we all know who Samsung is and if it wants something, it will. It has been rumored that it could enter the graphics card market, although I see it more plausible that it enters the x86 processor market and if this happens, unfortunately AMD will keep the leftovers of the two companies, but we will see how Intel is unable to compete with Samsung, who has become a hurricane.

  1. I notice you altered altered Roberto hahaha
    The post looked at Intel's lithography delay already over with a “calving” to Intel.

      1. I use the tactic of changing the processor every lot, I'm still with a first-gen i7 950. And with a 1080 it goes very well in gaming performance.

  2. The news is interesting, but it is very yellowish and has tints of resentment in each paragraph. I'm not a fan of any company but I think the note could have been written with a bit more neutrality, it's just my humble opinion.

  3. You got out of hand. And in a lot. Intel is not interested in selling cpu at 10 nm. The answer is simple. This quarter's earnings say it all. XDXD

    1. Wow, look at an intel shareholder, tell me how many shares you've won. Here as users, we are worth a dick first how much the companies earn, we know that they have to win the function is to demand a good product and apparently many take the companies as football teams and seriously they sound very ridiculous

      1. and if i have intel shares that ?????? It stings you that I'm making money. XDXDXDXDXDX

  4. Everything is very interesting, but you show a lot of resentment against Intel, I think you could be more neutral in the note and still make all your points clear.

  5. One seeks to find out about the actuality of the hardware and Google suggests me this article, which has zero information about what I was looking for, more than 2 words from the headline, and 100% words spat out with resentment.
