gollark: The chipsets are still not 7nm, right? As well as the 1st/2nd gen ones they still seem to sell (they're available very cheaply, at least) and some mobile CPUs.
gollark: They used (still use, I think?) Global Foundries for 12nm/14nm parts.
gollark: Intel, I mean.
gollark: It's been claimed that they were too aggressive, that they tried to do stuff without waiting for EUV technology to come along, that they just went down the wrong development paths, and probably a lot of otherr things.
