Intel 7nm EUV Node Back On Track, 2x Transistor Densities Over 10nm

It is better IF it worked lol. It is only better on power point slides and charts lol but those engineering goals were obviously not met.

Anywho I remember some big fuss when semiaccurate posted news about intel killing its 10nm node and intel refuted that claim. This seems in line with that. If 7nm will come out in 2020-2021 then 10nm wont even get a proper 1 year run lol
Which is what i said in that thread, 10nm is dead, long live 7nm.
And in that thread i said in a short time intel would announce 7nm is ahead of schedule and being pulled forward.

The writing has been on the wall this whole time, you can't fight a numerical advantage with nothing.
 
Starting to sound like the marketing after Piledriver... my how things change.
 
blah, blah, blah. Show me the evidence that 7nm is working for Intel. Until then, blah, blah, blah.
 
Intel could launch new mobile SKUs during CES 2019 using Cannon Lake, now marketed as 9th gen, perhaps just 4 and 2 cores U series 15W parts. I remember a news of Intel preparing to launch U series 9th gen parts soon. Possibly 9th gen will use both Coffee Lake (for 6 and 8 cores) and Cannon Lake (for 4 and 2 cores). By summer Intel could add more power hungry 4 cores, like 28, 35 and 45W including some desktop parts.

By holiday 2019 or CES 2020 Intel would launch 10th gen CPUs, now with all of them being Ice Lake parts. Tiger Lake (Ice Lake sucessor) will be cancelled since it is just an optimization. Sapphire Rapids would launch in holiday 2020 or CES 2021 using 7 nm and possibly new arch.

All these are best case scenarios of course, just to imagine the idea of 7 nm being launched by end 2020/2021 without ditching 10 nm, just shortening.
 
Is that a cut/paste of this post in the "new hardware" thread? Was that an accident? ;)
