What went so right with Ryzen?AMD were on the verge of bankruptcy and now dominate CPUs.
Intel forogor
Intel burning their chips? idk
why are they still so shit at GPUs?
>>109426871Because it's one of the few companies left still run by actual engineers
>>109426922gluing GPUs together is way harder
>>109426871Chiplets beated tired monolythics. Intels solution was add cuck cores
>>109426871Patent expiration. Notably the patent on simultaneous multi threading (SMT) that was the property of Sun microsystems (or IBM?) which they only licensed to Intel who then implemented it under the name "hyperthreading". until that patent expired, amd had to rely on a diminished fake implementation of SMT.
>>109426871>Be Intel>Invest billions in EUV>let AMD uses it*hit pipe
>>109426937every single smartphone, even the shittiest chinktrash, has a GPU in its SoC. it can't be this hard.
AMD Athlon 64 was objectively superior to the Pentium 4 but AMD back then didn't have Intel's marketing budget.
>>109426871>1990s>AMD basically irrelevant>bring in Jim Keller>he shits out the Athlon and Athlon64>Jim leaves>rapid dalitification with the Phenom (trash), Phenom II (OK), Bulldozer (trash), Steamroller (OK)>2010s>AMD basically irrelevant>bring in Jim Keller>he shits out the Ryzen>>109426922Mostly early drivers, they should outsource development to Valve.
gamers decided they wanted CPUs that don't corrode over time >trust me goys it's fine nothing to worry about, your intel cpus will only fail once they're slightly out of warranty
Because Sony funded Ryzen's development
>>109426871
>>109427009ThisIve always used intelaviv but after the 13th and 14th gen disaster I went with the AMD 9000 series
>>109427185I'm not sure if you realise but this confirms OP's statement. Your image shows a clear trend of AMD gradually replacing the CPU install base. That means they're selling more chips than Intel by a considerable margin.
>>109426871They bought top talent from Apple's CPU division.Ryzen didn't even need to do much, Intel was stagnating, selling us the same 4 core, 8 thread CPUs with ~7% more performance / year for what felt like a decade.
Lol looked at the price of an intelaviv cpu om ama zone and they used assassins creed shadows to promote it, they're out of touch and I'm glad I avoided their ebonic jank
>>109426871A competitive design and gamble on going chiplets to overcome the new challenges at the foundry paid off massively. Intel sat on its laurels and bet their business that 10nm node would panned out without any serious issues. They also started to dabble in various side projects that bore little or no real fruit. >>109426951Intel didn't invest in EUV at the time. They thought DUV still had life in it. It was TSMC that did with help of healthy investments from Apple. AMD simply got windfall from it. >>109426922They not are in reality. The softwae and hardawre are on par with Nvidia. It is just propaganda from Nvidia market which spend decades of capital and time to build up its stronghold of mindshare. It used often used falsehoods to convince its crowd to keep inside the bucket and go for the green eye.
>>109427009It wasn't corrosion. It was a yield problem. Intel simply pushed a good number of their Raptor Lakes to clockspeed targets beyond the safety zone. It was the 1.13Ghz Pentium III debacle over all again. Just to save optics and face in silly gayming benchmarks. Instead of accepting that fact that aren't #1 in such non-sense and were still ahead in some productivity task via having more threads thanks to those E-cores.
>>109426871Intel's fabs going to shit
>>109427314>Intel didn't invest in EUV at the time. They thought DUV still had life in it.It's both. Intel invested heavily in EUV yet still kept using DUV.
>>109427314>on par with Nvidiasure just don't look at the die size or power consumption for equivalent performance
>>109427354They did later when TSMC's EUV foundries started to bear fruit but it was too late. TSMC was able to leapfrog Intel at the foundry. Intel was #1 at the foundry and it had held that spot for decades prior.It is kinda funny that Intel snubbing Apple end-up costing their 800 pound gorilla status.
Amd was also kissing drumpfs ass for government gibs like novida and all of them, I don't want any of their crap desuI'm looking forward to upcoming chinese tech and harmonyOS
>>109427355Actually, they go back and forth on this. It is more to do with what node they are build on if nothing else. Both don't give a shit about power consumption with their gayming SKUs nor do majority of intended customers. The need for multi-slot HSF coolers speaks louder then marketing drones that tried to defend their sports team.
>>109426871intel nuked multiple generations of their cpus in a row
>>109426975>every faggot has a car, so why is designing top novel racecar systems hard?
>>109427381not him but you also need to realize that the smaller the nodes are, the less surface area there is to cool it thus requiring bigger heatsinks. back on 45nm and larger you could get away with a single slot design.
>>109426871Jim Keller's autism
>>109426871Basically Intel cheated performance for years, which resulted in massive vulnerabilities
products like ryzen 1400 and samsung b-die ram sticks were at the market at the same time
>>109428028My 2700X couldn't even boot 3200mhz CL14 with 4 sticks.
>>109426942ai says what saved amd from bankruptcy was ps4 and xbox contracts and jim keller's zen architecture, not smt. AMD already had all that tech.
>>109427473Yeah. Die power densities have surpassed nuclear fuel rod power densities.
