Thats not how I remember it.
Back then you already had the Am486 and the K5. They were fine but didn’t set the world on fire. It was the K6 that made a huge impact and that was a couple of years later (and a design they acquired externally.)
Intel mishandled the situation initially, but the whole episode was quickly put to rest when they reversed course and replaced all units (though I never returned mine.)
- chasil 2y agoI think AMD's purchase of NexGen was the external design for the K6. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NexGen https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NexGen
