interesting if true. Id be very curious to see the numbers compared to the new Ryzen 3000 series. If intel still reigns supreme here, the only way AMD can win is by doing what intel did when they released the C2D lineup.
Will AMD ever be top dog again?
You have to remember both companies are a business, not a catering service to us and if you expect that, you're on the wrong track.
They will cater but only so far as it suits/profits them to do so.
And if it doesn't, they won't.
All I can say is alot of the arguements in favor towards Intel stresses gaming performance, in fact if you were to look around at all the back and forth over who's better it's
almost always an arguement over Intel being better at gaming, that being the bulk if not the entire basis of arguement.
BTW note I stressed almost, not always here.
That may be true but there is much more to being "Better" than basing it mostly if not all on gaming alone.
ALL aspects of computing has to be taken into account, it's not like Intels have the sole purpose of gaming useage and nothing else, just like an AMD.
Intels are overall better for gaming and a few other things, AMD's have their own advantages as well with other aspects of computing, all that can't be denied.
We all know as fact the x86 compiler favors Intel anyway which accounts for at least some of the difference in many areas of it, but now that AMD has improved so much that advantage is diminishing. Software creators in the past favored Intel too, another fact of the matter in which things like it were discovered and exposed - It's just simple fact when it comes down to it Intel doesn't play "Nice" or even fair.
AMD in turn has had it's share of gaffs too with BD being the most obvious of these - Talk about disappointment!
And to be fair towards Intel, I'm sure any advantage that could be leveraged by AMD would be too and undoubtedly has been before.
In short, each has it's own advantages and disadvantages for
many reasons as to why they do or don't.
I'm not going to play the game of who's better - I'm going to go with what suits my particular needs best which is, THB the best way to choose what you'd get in any instance.
~Over and out.
