Intel struggling to meet demand for 14nm processors
Table of contents:
Intel's 14nm chips are in excessive demand, and that could have a negative effect on shipments this year. Shipments of Intel's 14nm processors have been running at full capacity since the chips at 10nm were delayed, further prompting demand at 14nm.
Intel will have 14nm processor and chipset stock issues for the remainder of the year
This not only involves processors, chipsets like the Z370 have also been affected since they were upgraded to a 14nm node. Both ACER and ASUS confirmed that the shortage of processors and chipsets at 14 nm will be the currency of the rest of 2018. And we know it all, in the end, any shortage will increase prices.
After deciding to postpone the release of the 10nm CPUs until the second half of 2019, Intel has just released two new 14nm processors: Code Eight Generation Low Power Core U Processors named Whiskey Lake and Core Y Amber Lake for laptops and tablets. The new super-slim notebook models launched by Acer's and the new MacBook series to be unveiled in September will adopt all the new processors, according to Digitimes sources.
Again this could benefit AMD and its Ryzen and Threadripper processors within the mass market. With a lack of stock by Intel processors at 14 nm, prices will rise in stores, so many could opt for the AMD offer that is being quite competitive in terms of performance.
