Anybody else saw the leaked Intel CPU roadmap? If that one is true, then they won't be able to fight against AMD for long anymore - the first 10nm Chips would be Tiger Lake U/Y mid 2021.

Comet lake would come out in a year or so, and apart from adding 2 more cores, I doesn't seem to do very much. But by that time it will probably have to fight against Zen3/Ryzen 4 already - if not even it's successor!

So unless Intel manages to magically increase the efficiency of their 14nm process and of the core architecture, AMD will trash them for the next 3 years at the very least.

Intel's CPUs already seem somewhat... not very eficient compared to AMD's, considering 1) their 14 nm process is actually more than half a node better than AMD's 14 - 12 nm, and 2) their transistor density is already made much lower to improve electron flow. I think their architecture is getting outdated like in their Netburst days, so I'd not be surprised if ARM / AMD processors outperform them with ease in coming years. If Intel does nothing, that is.

There's a reason why Intel has hired Jim Keller.

He no longer has to save AMD from time to time, now he has to do the same with Intel.
