Re:Intel demonstrates a 28-core processor running at 5GHz by dahart on Tuesday June 05, 2018 @11:11AM (#17238389)
Moore's law has slowed somewhat for CPUs, and Intel announced a few years ago that they were intentionally slowing down the pace of their releases.

"Intel stated in 2015 that the pace of advancement has slowed, starting at the 22 nm feature width around 2012, and continuing at 14 nm.[20] Brian Krzanich, CEO of Intel, announced, 'Our cadence today is closer to two and a half years than two.'"

"Intel disclosed in a regulatory filing that it is slowing the pace with which it launches new chip-making technology."

Moore's law for GPUs, on the other hand, hasn't slowed down yet because it's not as close to the wall.
