China's own 7nm chip news dropped atomic bomb on Western experts (lemmygrad.ml)

This is a photo of the architecture of SMIC's 7 nm chip. This is making big headlines in Western tech press.

Especially because U.S. pours more billions in its semiconductor industry than China does and that SMIC is slated to get prohibited from buying ASML's DUV lithography machines. Yet today China's SMIC is at least 2 generations ahead of Intel 😁

Curious timing though, with the CHIPS act up for a vote. Intel, Micron would have us believe SMIC somehow jumped two nodes so they can get $50B in taxpayer money.

Imagine thinking the people you buy your computers from wouldn't be able to engineer them too.

"Only whites can engineer stuff, them yaller people just ain't smart enough" was probably the rationale.

So Intel and AMD are going to become obsolete?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Not likely. If China advances too fast in this field the west will simply ban Chinese products from their own internal markets. Intel and AMD will lose global market share but the west despite all its big talk of free trade will immediately turn to protectionist policies when its own firms are under threat.

I mean you can already see this happening with Huawei. They just need to claim it's a "national security threat" or whatever.
