If they were to have a revolutionary technology that they haven't released yet, they'd release it as soon as their OEM and enterprise sales actually started to take a nosedive. Even though PC enthusiasts are outspoken about it, Intel is still doing just fine in their much higher-volume areas.

Have you seen the numbers and prices on Epyc Rome? All signs point towards Intel's reign in all areas being over. Short of a miraculous turnaround, Intel won't be competitive in three years.
