Intel plans to overtake Samsung and TSMC with its 1.8nm chips by 2025

A huge dose of skepticism is necessary when Intel speaks about their nodes since at least a decade and their 10nm fiasco, a node that was coming any next month for 7 years.<p>On the other hand some people (such as Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang) have said that they sampled the node and it&#x27;s very promising.

So TSMC and Samsung run circles around Intel manufacturing for more than a decade now but that&#x27;s only because they didn&#x27;t care. Now they plan to overtake their rivals for a change so that&#x27;s totally gonna happen!<p>Reading Intel&#x27;s PRs is a comedy at this point. Benchmarks, plans, made up &quot;turn around&quot; story. I guess they still woe some investors with it though.

Competition is good, we don&#x27;t want TSMC to pull an Intel and start resting on their laurels either.<p>But I&#x27;ll believe it when I see it. Intel has been spewing a lot of PR nonsense for lack of actual competitive products.

So, they are at 7 and want to go through 3 process nodes in 2 years? Good luck, no one ever pulled that off.

Ambitious plans are a good thing. Good luck to Intel.

Nice understated sarcasm (e.g. &quot;It remains to be seen which chip-making firm attracts which fabless clients&quot;).
