The Fall of Intel



I'm really not sure what the game plan is here.

If they'd provided funds: i can see it as being a matter of national security to save intel.

But to not provide any funding? Though i do hear this was a demand to continue to get the CHIPS act funds.
 

… in which it is revealed that the real reason Trump wants the stake in Intel is because the gov’t would then have inside information that he can trade stocks on in order to personally profit….

I’m not sure Intel needed to be told that they had to drop any diversity initiatives as part of the deal, but I’d bet the WH did so anyway.
 

Intel taking recycling seriously. Rereleasing a Comet Lake chip.

The Core i5-110 is a desktop processor, meaning it is compatible with an LGA1200 socket and either an Intel 400-series or 500-series motherboard. However, Intel has introduced two new sockets since LGA1200, so it's a mystery just how many consumers still have a LGA1200 motherboard that can accommodate the Core i5-110.

Despite the Core i5-110 being a blatant rebrand, Intel is still charging the same price for the chip as it was when it launched five years ago. The RCP (Recommended Customer Price) for the Core i5-110 is $200, which falls within the same range as the Core i5-10400's $200 to $210. It's an insane price considering that 14nm+++ chips should be dirt cheap to produce by now.

At $200, the Core i5-110 is supposed to be a value processor, but it's hard to see the value in it.
