Yes, AMD is not wasting expensive, limited 7nm wafers on stuff that doesn't shrink....
Maybe if Intel had done the same they could have produced working 10nm parts without needing 4 years of fixing.

Yeah, AMD is just going to ship probably 6 figures a month on 7002 series EPYC once ramped... I guess Apple Macbook Pro is also a low volume product?
if Intel can get 7nm to work, in 5 years they might catch up to AMD. Unless AMD sits still with Zen3/4 products...
You stopped with the Intel planned to do 14nm because they have no need to shrink FUD at least!
