1 year agoor it could be AMD managed to widen the already massive efficiency gap against intel enough on the design end; they deem it not worth it to pay for an absolute bleeding edge node. That being said I could believe either way because they also have to worry about risc competitors too in enterprise.
So many variables so I will wait and see.
So their attitude towards serious cpu development seems entirely nailing the uArch rather than rapid deployment towards mass enterprise adoption. Sure some super sensitive state and military machines that don’t need to be fast will likely use it, as Russians use Elbrus… but it seems money is last of their concerns.
Make sense as they likely have piles somewhat recent of Epyc and Xeon chips for their data centres till that tap goes off.
