I own an AMD system because I wanted many cheap cores. That was the Bulldozer USP, in my opinion. And it delivers. So why not drive the ecosystem around applications that gobble up cores? Not all compute workloads need a GPU e.g.back testing trading strategies, parallel searching and sorting, iterative machine learning etc. If I were you I would also fund the creation of some industry standard benchmarks in each of these application areas that benefit from many cheap cores.
