[QUOTE="cruelsister, post: 895635, member: 7463"] A few hours ago Intel released their Quarterly income numbers which on the whole disappointed. The real news is that once again Intel has once more delayed production of a CPU based on 7nm die technology. This should have come as no great surprise as the Big Dummies at Intel still hasn't even fully made the transition to 10nm from 14nm CPU's. AMD on the other hand already HAS a 7nm CPU being produced and sold in Laptops, and has also just announced that a desktop 5nm CPU (the Ryzen 4000 series) will be released in the 3rd quarter of 2020. Although these chips will initially be only OEM (not a boxed version with a loud fan) at first, this should be no issue to the true Geek (I never have bought a boxed CPU and I'm a girl!).
