Intel:说我们放弃DIY市场是扯淡

这两天关于Intel将在将在2014年的14nm Broadwell处理器上全部采用BGA封装的消息被炒的沸沸扬扬的,这就事情的始作俑者是日本媒体PCWatch的专栏作家笠原一辉,一篇看似有理有据的分析文章让Intel的DIY之路走向了末日。
这可就乐坏了Intel的死对头,AMD公司发言人在昨天声称他们没有转向BGA封装的任何打算,对DIY这一重要市场的支持会一如既往。这么一来Intel真有点坐不住了,终于肯出来辟谣了。
Intel的发言人Daniel Snyder向国外媒体MaximumPC表示:“Intel在可以预见的未来依然会继续提供LGA封装的处理器给用户,Intel不会放弃DIY市场,会继续保持桌面发烧玩家这部分市场的渠道业务”,对于在长久的未来的会不会放弃LGA封装,他声称“Intel现在还不会对长期产品路线图发表评论,但会在合适的时候通过正常渠道公布更多的细节”。
看起来Intel的发言非常有意思,“在合适的时候通过正常渠道公布消息”是不是在影射笠原一辉所谓分析根本就是拿小道消息在扯淡呢?
其实我们仔细想想也就可以明白Intel在当前不可能会放弃依然有利可图的DIY市场,尤其是在竞争对手AMD不是很给力的情况下,Intel几乎垄断了高端处理器DIY市场,如果Intel退出的话无疑是给AMD留下了一块巨大的蛋糕。Intel不是慈善家,而是商人,此举不是一个精明的商人的会干的事情。

Intel supporting socketed CPUs for "foreseeable future"
Suck it, Internet rumors; Intel finally broke silence this morning telling Maximum PC that it would be offering socketed CPUs for the “foreseeable future.”



The statement should help calm the nerves of panicky enthusiasts who have been reading weeks of rumor stories saying the desktop PC would die along with interchangeable socketed-CPUs.

“Intel remains committed to the growing desktop enthusiast and channel markets, and will continue to offer socketed parts in the LGA package for the foreseeable future for our customers and the Enthusiast DIY market,” Intel spokesman Daniel Snyder told Maximum PC. “However, Intel cannot comment on specific long-term product roadmap plans at this time, but will disclose more details later per our normal communication process.”

The statement by Intel is rare considering the company doesn’t like to comment on unreleased product let alone unreleased products three years and three generations away. That shows how the rumors have continued to build in critical mass over the last few weeks.

The rumor first surfaced when Japanese tech site PC Watch reported on a leaked roadmap the site obtained including Intel’s plans for Haswell to be the last processor in an LGA socket. After that, Intel would only offer the 14nm-based replacement, codenamed Broadwell in BGA trim. BGA or Ball Grid Array packages must be soldered to boards before being used. Since it’s nigh impossible for the average person to de-solder a processor from a motherboard it would effectively end the paradigm of making your CPU choice separate from the motherboard.

The PC Watch story spawned additional speculative stories and hundreds of heated discussions on forum boards around the Internet. Even wounded AMD got in on the action this morning when the company decided to take a dig at its competitor by reaffirming AMD’s commitment to sockets.

“AMD has a long history of supporting the DIY and enthusiast desktop market with socketed CPUs and APUs that are compatible with a wide range of motherboard products from our partners,” said AMD spokesman Chris Hook.

“That will continue through 2013 and 2014 with the 'Kaveri' APU and FX CPU lines. We have no plans at this time to move to BGA-only packaging and look forward to continuing to support this critical segment of the market. As the company that introduced new types of BGA packages in ultrathin platforms several years ago, and today offers BGA-packaged processors for everything from ultrathin notebooks to all-in-one desktops, to embedded applications and tablets, we certainly understand Intel's enthusiasm for the approach. But for the desktop market, and the enthusiasts with whom AMD has built its brand, we understand what matters to them and how we can continue to bring better value and a better experience.”

Of course, despite Intel’s statement that it is absolutely still supporting sockets will do little to stop the conspiracy theorists. Many will now want hard details on what “foreseeable future” means—details that Intel is loath to provide.

So is Intel likely to ever dump sockets and offer only BGA chips? Maximum PC’s view is that such a future is unlikely. First, server and workstation customers are unlikely to accept BGA products. And since Intel seems intent on offering a high-end product for enthusiasts such as the LGA2011 platform, enthusiasts would probably always have the big-boy socket to fall back to.

It’s also not clear on why Intel would move to a BGA-only for all desktops. The advantage of BGA chips is mostly done for space restraints in thin notebooks such as Ultrabooks. You could also argue there is a cost advantage since you don’t pay for a socket but a BGA configuration also means you toss the CPU if the motherboard went bad. It’s possible the leaked roadmap refers to the continuing popularity of mini PCs. In fact, Intel is already offering BGA CPUs soldered to motherboards with its Next Unit of Computing (NUC) experiment.
cpu连主板卖也没什么大不了。
农企加油啊,我还想看看明年平板专用的APU给不给力呢
cpu连主板卖也没什么大不了。
反正现在也差不多了!
以后如果要在高端CPU上使用BGA封装,首先要解决的是散热问题,高端一般是不可能BGA,中低端倒是有可能,中低端最多就是平面图像处理、观看高清影片这两项,中端配置的足够使用,尤其是多屏分屏显示这些就目前来说,中端已经足够了,高端现在针对的是那些视频制作、CG等行业使用,显卡还是需要独立的比较好
