Intel adds new assembly factory in china for its cpus

Intel now has a factory in China for the assembly of its CPUs

In the meantime, it should be noted that Intel has long solved problems with insufficient supply of its latest products and right now the chips tend to sell below RCP (recommended customer price).

Until now, Intel has been using its facilities in Malaysia and Vietnam to assemble and test its six-core Coffee Lake processors that are primarily sold at retail. Last week the company said that as of May 28, 2018, its customers would start receiving Core i7-8700K, Core i7-8700, Core i5-8600K, Core i5-8500 and Core i5-8400 CPUs assembled and tested. in Chengdu, China.

It ensures that the performance, quality, reliability and other characteristics of the CPUs produced, tested and assembled in different locations are equivalent, so we should not worry about the origin of these chips.

Additionally, the company has recently expanded its 8th generation offerings for the Core i5 / i7 with models that come with Optane SSDs, making its products a little more attractive. As a result, in order to avoid potential bottlenecks in the supply chain, Intel is adding a new facility to the list of factories that process such CPUs.
