Yes. The article (second paragraph) clearly states that this is a first for Intel, not for Data Centers.

Given that this is a trade-ish publication, I think writers/editors will more or less assume their audience understands the smackdown that AMD has been laying on Intel and AMD's chiplet strategy.

Though it's not even really a first for Intel. They made the Xeon 9200 series two years ago, and while those were slapdash and hard to buy, it's hard to argue that they don't deserve this crown. Two dies in a single package, each with 28 cores and memory controllers and I/O.

Even when Intel moves to heterogeneous dies, that won't actually be a first for them, even in the modern era. Several early i3/i5/i7 models had one die with two cores and another die that handled memory and I/O.

The 9200 was a reaction to AMD's EPYC so surely AMD gets the crown?
The crown of "first for Intel"

My comment started with that phrase because that's what it was about, but I guess the wording confused people?

How long have IBM been doing MCM ?
Like 50 years?
