AMD on the road to recovery.

Fair but at that point Intel was in a price war with a very competitive AMD, they couldn't push the price up and it had to have more cores.

That's right, AMD put pressure on them, and they had to do the best they could at that time, which was to increase the core count and maintain the price, otherwise they would have lost easily. So, Intel didn't increase the price because they couldn't, not because they didn't want to, as some try to present it. And thanks to AMD for pushing them away from 4 cores and forcing them to create the 8700k.

Hopefully, Intel can return the favour and force AMD to add more cores.

I also hope that Intel will get back on its feet and offer a competitive product. The Zen 2 era was the most competitive, with price cuts and increased core counts. If I recall correctly, Zen 2 had lower prices from the beginning, and Intel was forced to lower their prices, making us customers happy.

As expected pretty flat.

The more upbeat Intel article linked is a little odd but not off trend, because Intel are ever so slightly up this quarter is giving people hope that Intel have bottomed out, but they aren't looking any deeper than face value, Intel sacked thousands of its staff in this quarter, that's why they have an extremely marginal profit this quarter, absolutely nothing to do with Intel recovering in any market segment, which they aren't, Intel main source of revenue, Data centre is still running on margins of 4% despite having launch Sapphire Rapids, compared with AMD's 30+ %, its been like that for several quarters now, Bergamo, Genoa and GenoaX aren't even entered the market yet, they do that in this quarter.

Well maybe.

What i'm talking about is this.

RX 7900XT: $899.

1, that's not a 7900XT, its a 7800XT.
2, $900? come off it...

Don't pretend like its a 6900XT replacement for $100 off, we know its not that, we can easily see its not that.
If you want to price us out of your products AMD you do that, we just wont buy them, but to brand something as if its a higher end product with money off when in fact its a lower end cheaper product over priced is just insulting to our intelligence, that's the egregious bit, don't assume we are stupid.

It's totally "pulling a Nvidia"

Exact same!

"Introducing our new 4080 (cricket sounds) ....oops we meant 4070Ti"

AMD are doing the same 7900XT should have been 7800XT and everyone knows it. Just done the exact same thing as Nvidia did, rename as a higher tier and hope the masses wouldn't notice.

Less people have called them out for it though cos their pricing has been less brutal compared to Nvidias. Both are pretty scummy in my eyes, neither deserves any sort of praise this generation.

Exact same..... its like these hyperbole click bait Youtubers, i can't take people scream increasing the price by 35% is exactly the same as 70%, no its not, not going to engage with that.

Its currently £725, its about 10% more expensive than the 6800XT was, the 4080 is £1100, its still 60% more expensive than the 3080 was, get real...

AMD's market cap in now 1/3 (33%) higher than Intel's.

This makes them the sixth largest chip maker. Nvidia are by far the largest, they are romping ahead...

1, Nvidia: $1.384 Tr. :eek:
2, TSMC: $533 Bn.
3, Broardcom: $516 Bn.
4, Samsung: $356 Bn.
5, ASML: $281 Bn.
6, AMD: $258 Bn.
7 Intel: $194 Bn
8, Qualcomm: $155 Bn
9, Texas Instruments: $147 Bn
10, AMAT: £127 Bn

If AMD has a significantly better than expected 2023 Q4 / years end result their stock value could rise to $200 which would push their market cap past $300 Billion, past ASML and on the heel's of Samsung.

AMD haven't really dipped their hands in to that massive pot of cash, well ok they bought Xilinx with some of it, $45 Billion of it.... anyway if they do i think its time AMD used a few billion of it and went on a massive marketing campaign, i think they should be loud and proud of all the devices you find AMD in and they should centre a brand mindshare campaign around that, huge, massive, everywhere, relentless for a couple of months, AMD need a brand recognition campaign like the one Intel made in the 1990's.

Still rising - $168.50 / 273Bn
2024 should be a good year.
 
AMD power this and its predecessor Opportunity, this thing that was meant to last 3 month's in its environment but ended up lasting 15 years.

No one knows that, few people have any idea who makes all the console chips, the chips in a lot of the satellites people don't know they rely on, and some of the cars they drive, a lot of the medical equipment that save their lives.... AMD need to be a lot more loud and forthright about who they are. Anyone who is anyone that needs something cutting edge and custom designed and reliable choses AMD.
