If $/perf on multithreaded workloads is your metric then it did beat Intel from what I remember.
I believe it took until Zen 2 for the AMD high end to beat the Intel high end in multithreaded perf, and until Zen 3 for AMD to take the single threaded perf crown across the board too.
- p1necone 6y agoIt occurs to me now that AMD probably would have taken the multithreaded crown from Intel with Zen 1 if Intel hadn't upped their (consumer socket) high end from 4 to 6 cores in the same year. Although it's hard to say whether that was a direct response to the threat from AMD or not.
