The importance of AMD's use of chiplets should not be understated. Especially in the server space, it allows them to achieve far better yields on a monster L3 cache than Intel or any other competitor. Along with the modernized Zen UArch, this means they can achieve the same perf metrics at significantly lower cost than Intel.
