Intel hasn't manufacturered bespoke chips for some years now, which is why all, but one, mainstream consoles have been AMD.



Funnily enough the only "bespoke" Intel chip in recent times was Intel's own i7-8705G & i7-8809G used in the Hades Canyon NUC that replaced Intel's HD graphics with an AMD Vega M.


Which was an amazing chip. The Vega M + Intel cores combo delivered the graphics performance that Intel has been promising for years now. Would have loved to see a chip like that power the next few generations of ultrabooks, MBP's, etc.
