Intel hasn't been dominating in CPU benchmarks since AMD's new Zen architecture came out. They still have a ~10% lead for gaming but there are as many usecases where AMD is the best choice as there are where Intel is. So if this bug is slowing down Intel but not AMD servers by 10% then suddenly choosing AMD is a no-brainer.
