AMD marches "against Intel"? Is there some sort of confrontation going on between the 2? Or does this just mean AMD makes good processors and sells better?
I personally just don’t trust Intel. A lot of people just treat them as the default, but if you’ve been following the news for the last few years, there is a lot to be skeptical of quality wise.
if you have been following them for decades you know too
AMD: "Our partners will fry your expensive CPU on some boards."
INTEL: "Our software will fry your expensive CPU on all boards."
NVIDIA: "Our partners will fry the planet for all!"
~~NVIDIA doesn't make CPUs~~
Edit: Tegra
NVIDIA CPUs List
Actually, they do! Now the Grace isn't exactly something you'd plop into your desktop PC, but it's certainly a CPU. I think they've made others too, and a new model (Vera) is coming.
They make entire SOCs. None of them are x86 because of the duopoly that Intel and AMD have thanks to their cross-licensing agreement, but they still have functional CPUs with a common ISA.
Looks like things changed the last decades? AMD was the only CPU I saw dying on my machine. Intel was rock solid, but that was years ago.
The US government has stake in Intel. Don’t trust them anymore.
