Intel Zairi apparently wants to make at least some compute chips from Taiwan’s chip to Nova Lake, which commissions TSMC. Intel and TSMC are currently to prepare a design of a design in 2-nenometer process N2.
About Taiwanese United Daily News reportIt was correct again and again in the past. The website gives speculation called by Intel Tiles. The processor core, whose clock frequencies and efficiency also depend on the manufacturing process.
Intel production of Intel was already promised
At an analyzer conference already for the previous annual report, Intel’s Infection Head Mitchell Holthas confirmed that calculations for the Nova Lake should be internally built in the Intel Foundry and Outside. The conference is a transcript Available in search of alphaIntel uses its 18A technology for internal tiles, which will begin with the Panther Lake (perhaps core Ultra 300) this year. Panther Lake probably appears only for notebooks and mini-PCs, but the big desktop is not socket for PC. Intel Mobile Mobile CPUs may continue to build a new calculation style.
According to speculation, the process design kit (PDK) of Intel for 18A should be incomplete. Accordingly, the design library is missing for some application purposes and the leakage currents are very high. Intel may not currently be able to produce high-level high-demonstration CPU with its current top process. This requires high-demonstration libraries, which are accompanied by the interpretation of high clock frequencies. There are usually large cell blocks for such strong power flow. Better version is to solve problems from 18A-P 2027.

Meanwhile, rumors are not surprised for other N2 customers. There is uncertainty in the market especially due to American tariffs. TSMC must now plan and order production expansion for 2026. AMD recently used the opportunity to announce its first N2 product Venice (EPYC 9006). As usual, Apple is the first big customer.
