Uses where AMD or Intel fail?

[aoaaron]

Are there any uses where you would MUCH prefer an intel or AMD CPU?

The only uses I can think of are:

1. Emulation ; most emulators still favour intel, but AMD seem to have nearly caught up with Ryzen 2 but not quite
2. Vive Pro wireless streaming ; as far as I know upon release, no AMD support.

Do we need another intel V AMD thread?

I don't think this is really a bashing thread. I'm looking for use cases where AMD might be better. Although the extra core count of AMD is nice, for gamers who use CEMU.. the intel might be better?

It shocked me as I saw an AMD graphics card running BOTW on CEMU vs an Nvidia and I realised I will not buy an AMD card now, given the few £ I save over nvidia means I can't play a few games on emulators.

I was wondering if it was the case with CPUs as everyone seems very very anti-intel here.
