AMD looked just as bad not so long ago.
- oblio 6y agoPlus even though Intel has been super fat for 3 decades or so, everyone has predicted their death for at least another 3 decades (during their switch from memory to CPUs and then afterwards when RISCs were going to take over the world). So they do have a bit of history with overcoming these predictions. We'll just have to see if they became too rusty to turn the ship around.
- dogma1138 6y agoAMD looked far worse... if Intel is “dying” with a yearly revenue of ~$70B or so AMD should’ve been bankrupt 10 times already. Intel is managing to compete in per core performance while being essentially 2-3 nodes behind, and generating times the revenue of their competitor. Zen is awesome and we need more competition but Intel isn’t nearly as far behind as it was during the P4 days and it’s revenue is nearing ATH and it’s business more diversified it ever been, if you exclude the datacenter and client computing groups it still is bringing in more revenue than AMD.
