Intel officially disputed the news saying 14nm will be outsourced to TSMC

Intel has officially denied that it will outsource their production of 14nm silicon to from TSMC and stated that it will continue to “invest in Intel’s 14nm production capacity.

Yesterday DigiTimes reported from several sources that Intel would subcontract to manufacturer TSMC due to difficulties in supplying its 14nm silicon. It was suggested that Xeon for servers would remain under Intel’s own manufacturing, but chips such as the H310, subjected to 14nm deficiency would be transferred to TSMC.

But now we have just received an official statement from Intel saying, “In response to the environment of strong demand for chip manufacturing, we continue to invest in Intel’s 14nm production capacity.

Clearly, they won’t be seeking outside help and will be working hard at their own facilities to close the gap in their silicon reserves.

In general, such a high demand for a product might be a sign of success for a company, but unfortunately for Intel, it is only a sign of its technological progress that is not progressing as well as expected.

Frankly, it’s really good news, both for Intel and for consumers. If they had started outsourcing CPU manufacturing, perhaps they would have created a silicon batch where TSMC’s chips would work differently than Intel’s, and that would have been a logistical nightmare for everyone involved.
