- cm3 10y agoWhich is also why, once available, many people have to buy AMD chips in order to keep Intel in check and everybody's chances of getting ripped off lower. I'll buy AMD because they don't cut out features like ECC. Just recently Intel introduced a non-feature to disallow Xeon chips on most motherboards, while previously you could get a cheap Xeon to surpass the consumer CPU. Market segmentation is what Intel is very good at.
