Things seem to go from bad to worse for Intel as the year draws on. Back in 2018, it appeared it was heading for a new golden age with the hiring of many well-known people from within the tech industry. New node processes were on the books for its aging CPU designs, and as a surprise to all, murmurings of a new discrete GPU product line began to emerge.
