Microprocessor Marketing Wars

[socorrocleghorn]

Nice video you have,great info here,keep up the good work!

[stmbaah]

that market was decided by Microsoft, Others are all secondary

[globefreelancer]

I enjoyed watching your video.

amd ftw =P

AMD? Intel? Don't make me laugh, Sun is where it's at.

SPARC pwns all of you.

@S0chan But can it run Crysis?

[lostinxlation]

@S0chan

All the marketing/sales/performance advantage that SPARC had in the late 80s and early 90s got screwed by Sun itself. How long did they take to tapeout and productize UltraSparc3 ? Now they can't develop the high-end CPUs and they had to collaborate with Fujitsu's SPARC64 series.

Frankly, Sun is the worst company when it comes to the engineeing.

2.0ghz p4 1gb ram win7 home and 512mb ati x1650 graphics

i bet nobody can beat them specs

AMD is the top of the crop now intel is going south unless it comes up with some darn good chips with lower prices

[jamesjan]

been a proponent of AMD for a long time but right NOW the top dog sadly not AMD.

They lost the crown the moment Intel released the Core 2 series and now the i7 series.

Phenom II & Athlon II is holding their own from a price/performance perspective but the crown of top performance is still in Intel's court.

Still using my trusty S939 A64 3000+ with Win7 Ultimate RC. :P

You're living in the past.

[VeronicaDeVore]

You mean AMD "was" top of the crop...not anymore, Intel has had them beat for a while now.

[arronjvance]

It would be nice if AMD had a clearly superior CPU to press Intel on innovation and pricing. The don't; they have been staying competitive at price to performance by selling at lower prices than they would if they were competitive at computational power. This has eroded what margin they get per unit sold, AMD has been bleeding many millions of dollars every quarter for several years now and have additional concerns upcoming mostly with integrated graphics on the cpu die may crowd out GPU sales.

[111olbap]

That would have been true pre-2006. Intel is infinitely better at the moment and has infinitely better stuff on the horizon.

[MrMacFreek]

Intel all the way!!!
