I’m not sure why people are surprised? Intel pulled off 7nm without EUV. It’s just classic “China stupid, only American company can do that” bullshit.

AMD’s fabs became Global Foundries, who pulled out of the bleeding-edge node game once it became cost prohibitive to do so with 7nm.

Intel is still on 7nm. Samsung’s 5nm is basically 7nm+. The fact that SMIC can do 7nm without EUV is insanely impressive.

Intel took years and years of delays to achieve the same thing.

Most people from hexbear provide sources, which is better than can be said for all the tankie hate.
