Gelsinger wanted to build the capacity to actually produce those chips in volume, too, investing tens and even hundreds of billions of dollars in new factories in the United States and finally offering up its chipmaking services to competitors to secure business for those fabs. In an environment where data center businesses are focusing their dollars on GPUs instead of CPUs, it’s a bad time for Intel not to have any real strength in the graphics space despite spending years attempting to gain just that.
