Intel said will begin shipping its first volume 10nm processors, codenamed Ice Lake, for high-end PCs in June. It added it will also plans to launch multiple 10nm products across its portfolio through 2019 and 2020, including additional CPUs for client and server and for servers. The chipmaker added it plans to deliver even smaller 7nm chips by 2021. These 7nm chips are expected to deliver 2x scaling, 20 percent increase in performance per watt, and 4x reduction in design complexity.
„The lead 7nm product is expected to be an Intel Xe architecture-based, general-purpose GPU for data centre AI and high-performance computing. It will embody a heterogeneous approach to product construction using advanced packaging technology. On the heels of Intel’s first discrete GPU coming in 2020, the 7nm general purpose GPU is expected to launch in 2021,“ the company said in a press statement.
Intel shares declined 2.5 percent on Wednesday after executives forecast modest profit growth over the next three years, signalling it is likely to lag big rivals as the once-dominant chipmaker catches up in technology.
