Intel Has Become AMD: Best Gaming CPUs Are Last Gen

[humbug]

It took AMD 5 years between Bulldozer and Zen 1, and they did it with no money.

Sky Lake was Intel's last major architecture change, Kaby Lake, Coffeee Lake and Comet Lake are all the same iteration of the Sky Lake architecture, that's 6 years.

Rocket Lake is a new architecture, its not bad in its native 10nm form, it is bad on 14nm. Tho even on 10nm its still not as good as Zen 3.

So that didn't workout, so all hopes have shifted to Alder Lake. I can't wait for the sound of hot air escaping from various Youtube channels, again.

Intel 10nm was due out over 5 years ago, now had Intel managed it and kept up progression then the zen line would have looked like another bulldozer.

It's not so much AMD have done good but rather Intel have done badly which has let AMD take the performance lead.

We have to deal in what is, not what could have been, AMD were stuck on 28nm while Intel were on 22nm and 14nm, AMD made a better CPU on 14nm than Intel did and Zen 3 is better than Tiger Lake, it took AMD 3 years to make a 52% IPC leap from Excavator, about a 75% IPC leap from Bulldozer in 5 years.

In 6 years Intel managed a 10% IPC jump from Sky Lake, to be kind to it, in reality there is a small regression in some cases. Around the time, maybe shortly after Alder Lake is first on the shelves AMD are likely to be 30% ahead of where they are now, which is already 20% ahead of where Intel are now.
