It’s about time this happened.
According to Reuters
Intel are redesigning their chips. As quoted in the article considerations going

As it is, the number 2

they generate less heat (AMD being their competition). If Intel's brings in
an even more energy efficient line of chips, the cost efficiency of those AMD
chips might not be enough to keep selling them.
