One destroyer isn't "plenty tough on China".

Intel will invest, simple.

Or they're going to get curb stomped by AMD and Nvidia.

Anything else is off topic sabre rattling bullshit.

Intel already invested 10 of billions in expansion, what's a few billion more?

Intel specific tricks of the trade such as ? 6 years on 14nm ?

 

[peja]

Intel can invest in Malaysia, Singapore, south korea.
why Taiwan ?

Intel already add 7bil more investment in chip packaging at Malaysia after Gilsinger visit. Amd have chip packaging also at Malaysia. Malaysia have good incentive and infrastructure but too bad they don't have good talent for chip manufacturing

Intel's meeting with TSMC didn’t go as planned. TSMC wants Intel to pay an upfront deposit for its 3 nanometer technology. Intel had hoped for a special production line, but it looks like it will cost extra. Intel may want to keep its methods private. We’ll see how things turn out, as Intel plans to continue investing in Taiwan.
