      zen3 and zen4 are neck and neck with 12th and 13th gen. amd has the sales and marketing momentum so theyre still moving more units, at least for the desktop side.

        What you’re saying is the DIY crowd not the OEMs like Dell and HP. Intel has that covered and AMD is pivoting to data centers and AI.

            “Zen 3 and Zen 4 are neck and neck”

            They’re not though. Plain Zen 3 and 4 are worse. When you slap a bunch of cache on, then they’re more competitive. That’s not what was written originally though.

              Most of the people seething about Gelsinger’s comment fail to realize that a single high cost CPU beating the competition by 5% doesn’t make for a product line up.

              AMD’s client division has been reporting consecutive losses for the past four quarters as a result of their baseline desktop products underperforming, a gigantic Zen3 inventory issue, and not being able to ship laptop chips in volume.
