No wonder the clown is spending money like a drunken sailor.. ARMy will be more than willing to undercut intel prices by 80%, there go the margins!
After screwing all the big server teams they can't wait to tell the intel salesman 🖕
ARM:
ARM logoYesterday SemiAccurate told you about large ARM server customer #2, today it is time for #3. Once again we will use the tired old adage of “told you” because we did, exclusively, years ago.
This customer is huge, a bigger CPU buyer than Microsoft, and has if anything, a larger commitment to ARM servers than Microsoft does. Both Microsoft and buyer #2 is in what Intel categorizes as the Super 7+1, the top-tier of customers getting the best prices on Xeons. This new mystery buyer #3 is also a member of that elite club, so who are they and who are they buying from?
Yawn..
