Eek. He says AMD is dominating Intel.. that's a big N O P E

Objectively, AMD has made more advancements in their products and market share in the last 6 years.

Dominating? No... Out pacing them? Pretty much.

It's easy to have more advancement when you come from dirt.
 
AMD's Ryzen has done really well. Sure their earlier CPU's were not competitive at all with Intel. Now though, they are. I'm more enthusiastic about AMD these days. If they keep their performance increases coming they'll overtake Intel totally. Granted, that is an assumption but if history is any guide, it could happen. Right now I consider both at a tie. If you want raw processing power then AMD is the chip of choice. If you want gaming then it's intel. It'll be really interesting when AMD releases their next CPUs to see where they come in. But I like the competitiveness and I hope that they both keep each other honest.
 
It's easy to make large performance strides when your performance is 6 years behind to begin with. I'm glad they're competitive again, and I'm glad they came back from the slums, but I cannot understand why people praise Ryzen as some amazing chip. The 3000 series was priced competitively, I thought, but the 5000 series pricing is terrible.

Besides that, you have the USB drop-out issues that took AMD more than a year to fix, which plagued tons of users and really pissed me off seeing how little ****s AMD gave for pushing fixes for a major issue. This wasn't some minority problem either - it was widespread.

Regardless, don't expect large performance increases generation after generation. Like I said, it's easy to do that when you're way behind and the baseline performance is so low; not easy at all once you're at the high-end and it becomes more of a struggle to squeeze more performance out of something that's already close to maximized. The V-Cache rumor is another 15-20% increase, but I'm skeptical of what that % number will be in gaming applications. I don't think it'll be that high.
 
I'm skeptical as well but I still hope that they overtake Intel. Maybe then Intel will feel the need to innovate again.
