Brilliant move 👏👌

They are also "capitalising" on their massive bank balance from milking the consumer for over a decade. - not sure I want to see them bankrupt, but I cant say I am cheering them on.

@@palashjain6748 it takes one to know one

What are you talking about @Palash Jain? What has royalties got to do with this? Also Arm isn't open source. Also RISC-V designs aren't open source either. But regardless, Intel doesn't get any royalties for manufacturing chips. I don't understand what you are trying to say. Did you actually watch the video?

@@GaryExplains @Palash Jain just a guy who has no idea what he's talking about..I donno what royalties even mean in this context. It's clearly evident that intel want to generate revenue from opening Fabs to medium size fabless companies and automobile industry. This move syncing with the current semiconductor shortage is not a coincidence. It's one the main factor for this move

AMD spun of their fabs into GlobalFoundries more than a decade ago. Has it helped them? I don't know.

@@HerrFlachpfeife Yes, because they didn't have the scale or capital to maintain both cutting edge fabs and design chips. Look how much problems intel had with getting to 10nm. AMD probably would have had an even harder time of reaching that. It was better to hand off the fabbing to a specialist firm like TSMC.

Is GlobalFoundries still even around?

@@SirFaceFone Yes, GloFlo is still around. It is owned by UAE state investment fund Mubadala. The thing is, they've shifted out of high end leading edge fabbing (think sub 10nm) and are instead focused on manufacture of specialized chips that don't require bleeding edge processes, think the vast majority of chips in any product.

Well it's almost free money to let others make ARM chips on the spare capacity Intel had at its fabs

Thanks to Intels new CEO :) for this big change :)

The question is whether that is a positive or negative point for Intel? I suspect the latter.

Who cares tho

_sells chips which loudly say Malaysia or Costa Rica on them_

@@tanujrana8490 "Chyna"

@@another3997 the latter.

Yeah. Micron and Samsung stocks will be going up if RISC becomes mainstream.

And I welcome more Risc-V and ARM. It is the "brainpower" versus power consumption that I am looking for mostly.

@@brostenenOh absolutely, I'm looking forward to Risc-V, but there are a few problems... Well first, we need more RAM. RISC architectures consume a ton of RAM for equivalent tasks compared to CISC and I'm already utilizing 32GB on my Ryzen 5 1600x close to max often times and I don't do rendering or anything like that. And we will see how power efficient they are once they add all the equivalent instructions to what x86-64 already has, as RISC-V and ARM still lacks a lot of equivalents.

@@badass6300 We do not need the x86 instruction sets. We need to look forward. If you add more instructions, then it is not Risc any more. 😉 Anyway.... Amount of ram is of no concern as such, as long as power consumption are lowered. If it will result in more "brainpower" as a bonus, then I welcome it. We have been stuck in x86 for so many years, that it is not exciting. We need a game changer, like when the industry moved from 6502 to 680x0 and 8086/8088. (Possible 80286) Those were exciting times. And we need it again. Something that changes it all and starts a new battle of ideas and inventions. I think that will be the case, if Risc-V and ARM are going to battle head to head. X86 vs. 680x0 all over again. And my money is on Risc-V.

@@brostenen Again, RISC-V and ARM can't do a ton of things x86 can. And RISC came before CISC, so technically we are going back. The problem isn't CISC, the problem is that x86 is backwards compatible and has tons of legacy instructions in it. ARM-8 is barely backwards compatible with ARM-6 and pretty much incompatible with anything lower. I'm all for ARM(if Nvidia doesn't buy them) and RISC-V over x86, but I'm more so for a brand new CISC architecture. And I'm also for stronger core architectures for the desktop users/general consumers... most software people use is less than 95% parallel...

yes I really hope they get it together and keep up the standard, AMD is on the rise and competition is good (at least in the current paradigm, that is)

Intel actually knows everything and how the market is behaving, stop talking nonsense. Intel also makes storage solutions for data centers and thenother advantage is that Intel is an American company based in the US where they make chips, also Intel owns their own foundries.

@@chrisrosenkreuz23 I think AMD also need their own foundries to really compete with Intel, if AMD want to remain in business they may also need to expand TSMC foundries sizes or factories.

@@alanmay7929 well if they do, they won't change CEO and keep doing what they've been doing that puts them in the competitive disadvantage.

@@leledumbo i totally disagree with you, with the chip shortage happening now and with the growing automatisation of things, chip makers are going to invest more and try to have more customers to even research/improve and invest more in the manfacturing. intel already has an advantage by just owning their own fab.

ARM is British, so in some sense this is just the UK outsourcing manufacturing to Ireland via an American company creaming the profits off both ends.

Ever heard of Intel XScale cpu? Also check their FPGA Socs

They lost the competition on their own design, so no point in fighting a losing battle; might as well get a piece of the ARM/RISC 5 business.

Yeah probably heard crickets.. ARM is probably the future.. 🤔

@@psaunder1975 Nothing is definite in future!

@@nitharsanam630 that's true! However if you watch Engadget videos about why Apple M1 processor is so good, you see why x86 is hitting wall in optimising it compared to ARM instruction set. Unfortunately x86 is bloated with too many years of legacy add-ons. BTW I'm not an Apple fan boy, I use it Android & Windows.

Too late though, and x86 is just useless.

@@crhu319 Really? I swear I am still using x86 for my windows 10. Don't tell it to PS5 and XSX users... or else.

Bit Cell/SRAM size between nodes can be a metric for a fairer comparison

10nm or 10nm superfin?

You're right but I wonder : everything isn't only tied to density isn't it ? What about efficiency ?

@@trixniisama Efficiency breaks into 2 caregories: 1) TDP which gets better with a smaller node as there is less electrical resistance, thus it consumes less power and creates less heat providing the same computational power, 2) IPC which gets better with smarter chip designs, instruction sets and of course A.I. Processing Speed (GHz) still remains a factor but has nothing to do with efficiency, the reason we are stuck at about 5GHz is because of limitations in material (silicon). Note that using other materials we might get to 10GHz or more in 50nm nodes and practically accomplish the same result, something I expect to happen in the next decade as we are reaching the limits of currently used materials.

Even if everything you mentioned is true these points are moot. TSMC has had 5nm in full production for 9 months. They are starting to produce their 3nm fabrication. The building of their 2nm foundry has already begun. Intel’s own estimate of having their 7nm foundry is more than two years away. It’s hard to put into words just how far behind Intel is in their current foundries. Intel’s 10nm process was delayed by over five years. Unless the US government comes forward with a Manhattan style effort Intel will likely never catch up.

Welcome aboard!

I was talking about the end result, which is less heat. So, no not a correction.

Was jjust bridging the gap for others... Ofcourse you know everything ❤️

Right. And make Intel a boatload of money

I would doubt that, all the newer CPUs GPUs and Socs are built on newer nodes. I can see this helping the chip shortages in the automotive industry tho (and other commodity items) I doubt it will do anything for the mainstream chip shortages

I really wish that when they come back, they actually have good MSRPs, AMD and Nvidia have been selling at huge profit margins, especially Nvidia for 2-5 years now. And Intel used to sell at big profit margins until their shortages in 2017.

CPU foundries are like Rome, not built in a day. I don't expect the shortages to be over for at least a year. What keeps me positive though is that by then more generations of tech we can't buy will be available and thus older (2020) parts will be pretty cheap. Hopefully you can build a Zen 3 + RTX2060 for $600 total in 2023, which is still great imho.

Intel opening their fab to third parties will do nothing to eleviate the chip shortages tho

@@tanujrana8490 not true. Well true for desktop cpus and gpus, but intels 22nm is great and not used currently and soon their 14nm will not be used at capacity

@@badass6300 yeah i mean consumer chips CPUs GPUs. Itll ofc make the automotive chip supplies better

If it were so, you couldn't see them. 😎

As I said, Intel has announced that its 7nm process is on track and that it has moved to EUV like Samsung and TSMC.

the 14nm, 10nm or even 7nm nomenclature cannot be compared between different companies only with it's own company as each process node is defined differently. Basically comparing apples to oranges. Intel 10nm is 1.5x denser than Samsung 8nm Intel 10nm is between TSMC 7nm and 7nm + Intel 7nm is projected to be equivalent to TSMC 5nm Samsung 8nm is = to TSMC 10nm

I wouldn't pay a huge amount of attention to the names of node sizes, different manufacturers processes aren't particularly comparable these days.

@@Exyvia Exactly, everyone getting suckered into TSMCs marketing definition and then making fun of Intel like they are decades behind

Intel is investing $100 billion on Germany for it's 4nm Fab.

"Lagging behind". 😉

Why are they teaching you that? Seems pretty cruel to me...

@@Tim_Small it’s not cruel for Indians lol

It won't be RISC-V, but a proprietary variant of it.

@@Katzelle3 that's the point of risc, do what you want.

@@YounesLayachi Huh, the point of RISC is to take advantage of cheap memory and let machine code be written by software. But you're talking about RISC-V being an open source ISA, which should allow any hardware manufacturer to build their own CPUs compatible with the same code. If Intel is the sole proprietor their own RISC-V variant, then non-Intel chips won't be able to run Intel code.

I believe RISC V has a permissive license. So it is in the spirit of BSD license, not in the spirit of GNU licensing. So it is a do what you want type of license, so long as you give credit where credit is due. You can choose to take advantage of a standard on RISC V, but no one is gonna hold your feet to the fire legally for not.

Samsung have been offering their chip customers SiFive RISC-V cores for several years already.

No, it doesn't. I have covered that in several other videos. I have a video about Qualcomm and 5nm chips, I go deeper into the whole "nm" thing there.

Yes, it has an ARMv6 license. I cover that in my Arm vs Intel video.

v6 won’t cut it with v9 on the way.

XScale. And they are producing ARM SOCS at 10nm for the FPGA.

Yes, though you might need to do a bit more work than just the verilog file. For example this program even lets you do it for free if your design is open source and you get selected: www.skywatertechnology.com/mpw/open-source-mpw-program/ Other fabs also run MPW (Multi Part Wafer) programs which are typically much cheaper than paying for your own masks and wafers to make chips.

Yep that's what I was thinking. People shouting that this will solve everything. All that'll happen is some automotive chips will move to intel fabs and all of intel manufacturing will move to tsmc, could potentially worsen the situation by putting more pressure on the 7nm fabs

Maybe the biggest demand is gonna come from US companies looking for production in the US instead of China ?

@@autohmae not only US companies. Huawei and lots of other Chinese brands can get back into the US market using Intel's fab... it is trully a brilliant move and about time it happened.

I am guessing that Intel's 7nm node will be reserved only for ponte vecchio and other products like grand ridge until 2023.

Imagine pi+RISC v/ARM with powerful gpu+7nm+5w tdp Otw the custom handheld gaming device

It all comes down to the price. Older nodes usually have less demand, thus they are cheap but there is always a point when it's not worth it any more and gets retired. Also, bigger node means less cpus per waffer but also less defective ones. The Pi was never meant to be fast, it's meant to be cheap and extensible.

I know of RISC-V cores made in 180 nm and 7 nm and everything in between.

Yes, the bit about Intel offering a portfolio of x86 IP is very interesting, but yet still unclear exactly what it means. I have opted not to speculate at this time. When more info comes to light I will probably do a follow-up video.

Amd is working with samsung on mobile graphics so theres work being done

There is an ARM cpu inside Ryzen. But yeah, they shelved K12.

They can (and probably already have, at least some internal experiments just for fun/research) - that's the beauty of an open ISA! :D

Don't think they had much choice.. Reality was smacking them in the face.

@@psaunder1975 Yes you're right, but apparently it took a new CEO to figure that out. He's got a big job ahead of him but he's off to a good start. Obviously a lot more competent than the previous CEO. It will be interesting to see if he can come up with some more smart moves to follow up this one.

What about Nvidia ???

I can see the automotive industry moving to intel, along with some commodity manufacturers

That is the whole point, it wasn't "a given" when Intel tried to open its foundry services last time. This time it had to be explicit about what it was offering.

Not really, those IPs are generally limited by market (e.g. only industrial use) or design (e.g. 2 generations behind). Also a CPU is more than its core design: i/o, cache, A.I. accelerators etc are just as important and aren't easy to design either.

@@rallisf1 yea so we can have a x86 core with an au accelerator not from.intel but say amazon and graphics from say nividia and have a hybrid chip ... And this can be customised as per the customer requirements Say for example amazon wants it's accelerators with x86 servers

@@SudeepKS if you're talking about amazon or microsoft yeah, but they already do that. They didn't wait for Intel to go full public. The average Joe Inc can't afford a custom design anyway and if they do they'll probably go with ASIC or RISC-V, or even ARM. x86 is too complicated for most applications.

It doesn't really need to tho🤔 Apple silicon isn't coming to the open market anytime soon. Also, the comparisons are somewhat blown out of proportion imo considering that these are comparisons across architectures

And if it comes to performance per watt, riscV blown everything out of the water, even apple silicon

@@tanujrana8490 RiscV looks a lot like MIPS to me, that's quite an old design

True, the nugget about Intel offering a portfolio of x86 IP is very interesting, but yet still unclear exactly what it means. I have opted not to speculate at this time. When more info comes to light I will probably do a follow-up video.

AMD is already offering their IP. We see it in gaming consoles, industrial systems, even government computers (totally not pointing to China or Russia...). But in most cases those contrracts are limited to 2 generations behind. That means, don't expect to see rebranded Intel cpus hitting the market, at least not the one's you would like to buy. Will Intel be making a big difference by following suit? Not really, but desperate times call for desperate measures...

@@rallisf1 AMD can't licence X86 directly as that's Intel's IP they can licence high level designs like how they licenced Zen plus cores to a Chinese company a while ago but they cannot licence the X86ISA. It's an interesting development as AMD and Intel cross licence IP notice how Intel CPUs say AMD64? AMD has an indefinite licence of X86 due to interesting circumstances where AMD can always use the ISA but it's not their intellectual property. What I don't know is what the limits on Intel are when it comes to AMD64 they might not be able to license that out without AMD getting on board too. It is possible that AMD would support such moves as both AMD and Intel have an interest in maintaining X86 dominance. AMD is less dependant on X86 as they have an ARM licence and use ARM IP in their products.
