Or more likely the 10nm process yield issues are the reason Ice Lake Xeon's are late. One potential is that Ice Lake Xeons are less relevant because it is on market short period before replaced by Sapphire Rapids. Since they got the Tiger Lake Xeons running in lab in June, and it should take them about year to get it to servers. And I doubt that they would have manufacturing issues with Tiger Lake Xeons when they can manufacture Ice Lake Xeons. As for Intel being irrelevant in servers, I doubt that they would go from over 90% market share with on paper inferior products to irrelevant in a year.
