Weird things are happening in Santa Clara, Intel’s headquarters.

For well-known reasons, Intel has recently been rumored to be buying Israeli AI startup Habana Labs for $ 1 billion to $ 2 billion. This is another reasoning chip on Intel ’s inference chip after it acquired Nervana System for $ 350 million. One acquisition.

For some strange reason, Intel turned out the outdated 22nm Haswell architecture from the old paper stack and relaunched the Pentium G3420. It sounds like the relaunch of Big Brother in the 5G era. It can be called a large post-modern performance art …

What exactly did Intel, which was trying to “dig a grave”, do in the core business?

Reproduces Haswell’s glory, or reflects Intel’s obscure current

Frankly, it is undeniable that the 22nm Haswell architecture was once very powerful.

But everyone is expecting it to launch a series of 10nm-specific CPU nodes, Pentium processors that “turn on and off”, which obviously live up to the expectations of the market.

In particular, the Pentium G3420 has been discontinued for a long time, and now it is pulled out of the grave, and the product notice states that “According to the new roadmap, it was decided to cancel the discontinuation and realize the long-term nature of this product again.” I ca n’t help but let the people who eat melon feel so emotional, I never expected to see such a development roadmap with historical reversals in my lifetime …
