Intel has to make different wafers for products that use different numbers of cores or different GPUs. How inefficient is that?!?!

The cost trade-off of NRE/maskset/overhead vs lower unit cost and
high manufacturing capacity depends on volume. Intel's volumes
make this a no-brainer for mainstream products.


What does Intel do with all the bad processors that don't meet full product specs with low double digit yields?

Intel would never release a device with anything approaching
"low double digit yields" to production even for a 4 figure ASP.
Any thing else you need help with?
