Intel posted its Q1 2020 results yesterday, and the firm reported a strong Q1, particularly given the ongoing economic impact of coronavirus. Companies like Intel, AMD, and Nvidia are some of the few that have seen stronger sales in the wake of the pandemic, thanks to a surge of work-from-home equipment purchases. After years of delays, Intel appears to finally be confident in its 10nm. Even after Intel launched 10nm, it has remained cautious about predicting the future of the node.
