It is believed that Intel’s recent manufacturing problems, especially with the 10-nanometer process, have contributed to the market decline. To address this problem, the company plans to use TSMC’s advanced 3nm process for its upcoming Lunar Lake laptop processors, aligning its technology with AMD’s new laptop chips, which will also use the 3nm process.

The company is also set to release an Intel 20A node for its Arrow Lake desktop processors this year and an 18A node next year, which could close the gap with TSMC’s offerings. Panther Lake processors, scheduled for release in 2025, will also use 18A nodes.

A few days ago, it was reported that stability problems with Raptor Lake processors, originally intended for desktops, have now spread to laptops. The issues, which affect the 13th- and 14th-generation processors, are manifesting themselves in the form of crashes and performance drops, especially in games and demanding applications.

So far, the problems have been reported as a result of the issue.

According to numerous reports, including from developers and users, the crashes occur despite the latest firmware and BIOS updates, suggesting inherent flaws in the processor’s design.

Intel has responded to the issue, saying it is aware of a limited number of reports of instability in the 13th- and 14th-generation mobile processors. After analyzing instability issues with the desktop versions of those processors, the company determined that the mobile processors are not susceptible to the same problem.
