    As soon as Coffee Lake/refresh came out I could tell Intel was gonna be cooked, so cooked. The ever-increasing sweating over their aging 14nm node and the failure to really bring 10nm to market, the skyrocketing TDPs, like I can remember when people thought a 125W Phenom was a big guy. Despite this they never quit dumping a socket after one or two generations, bad cooler/socket mounting, all the usual dogshit. Never been more Joever, like Netburst but worse.

        Well they had 10nm Ice Lake in laptops a few years ago, but yeah only dual and quad cores lmao. Their 10nm node seems to have failed lol. "Real men have fabs", they said.
