Intel Is Open To Making World-Class CPUs & GPUs From Themselves & From Their Competitors (AMD & NVIDIA) At Their Own Fabs
During the interview, Pat said that during the inauguration of the Ohio Fab, he sat down with a number of CEOs from fabless companies and welcomed them and even offered to put their logo next to the fab where their new products were made. Not only that, but Pat Gelsinger also said that he will be thrilled to putting logos of their competitors (AMD & NVIDIA) at their fabs. But that’s not all, when talking about actual products to compete against NVIDIA and AMD, Pat said that his company is going to win in this space and make the fastest high-performance computers in the world. Chipzilla’s CEO went on to say that his company will be making the fastest CPUs, fastest GPUs, and also, the fastest discrete GPUs in the world. It is a pretty bold statement & he highlighted Meteor Lake to fulfill that promise. You’re going to put an AMD logo on the side of an Intel fab? Hey, if they choose to manufacture with us, I will be thrilled to do that. It’s the right thing at that level. These are large investments, and they are important for technology — they spawn technical communities. Pat Gelsinger, Intel CEO, via The Verge
Intel Has Its Eyes Set on Everyone! Wants To Make Chips For Apple, NVIDIA, AMD & Qualcomm
Pat also says that it’s not just AMD and NVIDIA, he wants to show the world that Intel is capable as a world-class manufacturing company with bleeding edge fabs at its disposal that can fulfill their requirements. It is definitely going to take time but just recently, Intel’s Foundry Services was able to land a deal with MediaTek in a strategic partnership & will be manufacturing their edge-focused chips. Hey, we are here to win in this space. Make no mistake about it. We are going to build the fastest high-performance computers in the world, the fastest GPUs in the world, and the fastest discrete GPUs in the world. We will have continuity to our integrated graphics as well. With increasingly integrated graphics in a heterogeneous architecture where you have multiple chiplets, just wait until you see Meteor Lake next year. These become quite interesting products, somewhat as Apple has shown. I see that continuity, and we are going to be very competitive Pat Gelsinger, Intel CEO, via The Verge Intel’s Meteor Lake CPUs are planned for launch next year and the company is already in work on their fastest HPC GPU to date, the update to Ponte Vecchio known as Rialto Bridge. Intel’s CEO has also squashed rumors of ending their discrete Arc gaming lineup & the company is well on its way to developing the next GPUs known as Battlemage and Celestial. I’m not going to displace that, but to earn that business, we have to start coming in with unique perspectives, the best transistors with capacity corridors, and the PDKs (process design kits) and EDA (electric design automation) tools. The natural tailwinds will work for us. We are getting good momentum, and we are pretty excited about that. One by one, we are getting the media tech design win. The largest fabless company in Taiwan is committed to the US foundry company. That is pretty nice to see. Rick Tsai used to run TSMC, right? He is a very helpful customer. His commitment has helped teach us how to be a good foundry. Pat Gelsinger, Intel CEO, via The Verge
