#2N7+ in early 2020 and 5nm by end of 2020 is pretty impressive. Intel should be worried.

#3AMD struck gold with TSMC right?

#4AMD struck gold with TSMC right?
Yes, although there was an element of luck that Intel 10 nm failed at the same time that TSMC 7 nm came out smoothly. The opposite situation happened back at 32 nm and could happen again.

yeah but how many nm are left? There's a phsyical limit to transistor size!

#6Wow what a treasure trove that website is.

#7> by our estimate TSMC will be a "full node" ahead of both Intel and Samsung
How times have changed! I still vividly remember Intel being a full node ahead of everyone else with their release of 22nm node. For example, see this article from 2012: https://www.extremetech.com/computing/127987-deliberate-exce...
This too shall pass.

7 -> 7+/P -> 5 -> 5+/P -> 3 are all in the works already and that's just TMSC

#9I hate when acronyms prevent people from understanding important parts of an article. Here you go.
TSMC = "Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, Limited, also known as Taiwan Semiconductor, is the world's largest dedicated independent semiconductor foundry" (from Wikipedia).

You are expected to know what TSMC is if you are reading this... People wouldn't expand AMD to Advanced Micro Devices and then explain it develops CPU (Central Processing Unit, in case you didn't know!), would they?
