    I know it’s more complicated than just node size, but you’re making it sound like intel cpus are roughly the same transistor density as current AMD cpus, so why is amd that much more efficient?

      Phoenix is on 4nm, Intel 4 is more comparable to 5nm, so its definitely not what ive been saying remotely when ive explicitly said that Intel 4 is comparable to tsmc N5 node.

      If you’re thinking about desktops, 0 desktop processors are on the Intel 4 node, so you couldn’t even have a point of reference on it. If you want to compare Intels 10nm (renamed version being 7nm) to TSMC 7nm, that would be like comparing Alder Lake/Raptor lake to strictly Zen 3(AMD 5000 desktop cpus).
