Well, they weren't better per dollar once you factored in power consumption.

Well, they weren't better per dollar once you factored in power consumption.
- philjohn 7y agoFor bulldozer, maybe, but pre core uarch they were faster and more energy efficient.
- antisthenes 7y agoPhenom, Phenom II, Bulldozer & Piledriver, all had worse performance/power. Basically all of their CPUs from 2007 until 2014, a full 7 years.
- rodgerd 7y agoAre you factoring in the Spectre losses?
- philjohn 7y agoYes, as I said, pre Core uArch, which launched in 2006 for laptops and 2007 for desktops. Prior to that Intel was on the dead-end NetBurst and Athlon 64 and derivatives were the better chip when it came to performance per watt and outright computational power.
- nolok 7y agoWhich also got majorly reversed now, intel uses way more power than amd for equivalent performances
