Intel bribing meant AMD went nearly bankrupt and therefore had to abandon high end GPU development because they needed to focus on Ryzen. So everyone that complain about AMD not having high end GPU can blame Intel.
When intel was pulling bribes, Ati was an independent company! Despite said bribes and their effectiveness, AMD still found it within themselves to pay $5 billion (over twice what Ati was worth) to acquire Ati. They also poured billions into building what would become Global Foundries.
AMD's debt problem was caused by AMD.
Surprise, something happening long time ago can have huge effect on today. Main reason why Intel even got popular is fact that IBM chose Intel CPU for IBM PC. That was over 40 years ago

DDD
Surprise, things that happened a long time ago can be totally disconnected from today. AMD was making bank in the 2000s, that was 20 years ago
Every year? AM4 got new CPUs for around FIVE years. FM1 and FM2 use APUs that have totally different CPU architectures. Complaining that totally new CPU architecture requires new socket is just plain stupid Unless promised. AM1 was never meant to be long term socket and motherboards were dirt cheap anyway.
OK, so is changing CPU sockets good now? Or is it bad? You cant seem to make up your mind. Intel put both netburst and conroe on LGA 775, so what is AMD's excuse here?
This is what we call hypocrisy.
That's what trolls always tell.
Throwing ad hominems is always a good sign for the quality of an argument.
"Forgetting" that Intel promised Core 2 support for many Pentium 4 motherboards that didn't happen. Additionally there were power issues and higher FSBs that practically meant at least 4 generations of LGA775 boards, despite socket was physically same. Late LGA775 boards didn't even support Pentium 4 so basically there were very few if any LGA775 boards that actually supported all CPUs you mentioned.
But it's OK when AMD does it? 300 series boards still, to this day, do not fully support ryzen 5000 or the x3d, and 500 series boards do not support 1 or 2000 series ryzens, or the construction core based 9000 series APUs.
So, again, it it only bad when Intel does it? Shouldn't you be slagging AMD for not fully supporting AM4?
So no, LGA775 was long term socket only ways no-one was interested. Just like LGA1151.
Oh, so it was a nothingburger that nobody cared about? That's an odd reason to hate Intel then.
Intel shouldn't have rushed Raptor Lake AND overvolt it. Not it was just hot mess that didn't even work properly long term.
Yes, raptor lake was a screwup. AMD has NEVER done that....... *cough* Phenom cache bug *cough*.
If you hate a company that released a bad product, well, hate to break it to ya but you're going to be living like the Amish real soon.
And, again, if we're hating a company that released a failed product, we dont hate AMD because?
That just tells customers are plain stupid. OK, customer says they want AMD and tell "their" OEM that if the do not offer AMD, they just buy from someone else. What happens next? Well, customer just accepts that if they don't offer what we want, we buy from them anyway. That's just plain stupid.
This is written like a teenager who has never worked a real job in his life.
Newsflash: corporate environments are not enthusiast spaces. Corporate environments buy equipment that suits their needs, preferably with warranty that covers their use and support contracts. Sure, they can leave feedback with their representative, but if Dell doesnt make an AMD latitude laptop, we're not going to torch our multi million dollar contract and rip up all our infrastructure to switch to Acer.
The only big OEM that offers necessary features and AMD options is Lenovo, and since they dont offer work laptops with metal frames, we dont consider them. Their plastic frames simply do not hold up to the strain.
This is the reality of a REAL work environment. You're not going to switch vendors because AMD's APUs are 20% faster in Minecraft. Unless you actually need those capabilities, its not gonna happen.
Have to wonder, where all those AMD server CPUs go if no-one is willing to "risk" anything? It just seems more and more are taking risks and it seems to work for some reason. In other words, there were no real reasons, only pathetic excuses.
You are absolutely clueless about how production environments work. Risk must be calculated when changing vendors, just because one CPU gen is good does not mean a company will drop everything and switch. If funding becomes available to replace everything at once, THEN AMD becomes a much more viable choice.
With your attitude, you'd end up getting fired when your hybrid AMD/intel server workflow crashes VMs and costs the company millions, while you rant about how your boss is "stupid" for not buying more AMD.
Intel's architecture doesn't suffer from the same memory communication bottlenecks as AMD's, and its IMC is generally more refined.
Zen's topology, on the other hand, still has significant room for improvement. Currently, it supports core groups of up to 8 cores per CCX. When scaled to 16-core configurations, communication between two internal CCXs is required, introducing additional latency overhead:
See, this is why I miss Anandtech

Meteor lake was already showing significantly worse inter core latency then raptor lake had
Arrow lake is arguably even worse, with up to 100ns latency between cores. That's arguably worse then AMD's CCD to CCD latency.
Arrow Lake is the codename for Intel's newest generation of high performance desktop CPUs.

Intel's design WILL benefit significantly from the large cache. Even WITH low core and memory latency, Broadwell showed significant improvement with its 128MB cache. How soon we forget our history!
Go ahead and quote this when these big cache nova lakes launch, I'd bet that they'll significantly benefit in performance.
