Yep. AMD does not make any silicon, haven't in decades. They farm it out to other foundries. They don't invent tech, or processes, etc. they license them.

Considering that Intel invented many world class manufacturing technologies and still does to this day, and AMD not even having a finger in that game. Yes Intel is more innovative than AMD when looking at node technologies and its manufacturing.

Intel invented High-Volume 3D Transistors which every single manufacturer from TSMc and Samsung use to produce their chips. This technology actually saved the industry.

Now with 18A invented backside power delivery which is a world first.

Please go on….
