The Slow and Deserved Downfall of Intel

You can say the same thing about AMD years back . AMD can reign supreme but it’s not good for consumers if Intel exits the game, but that’s not going to happen. If it does, AMD will jack up prices ten folds without competition really. That’s just the reality :) Intel is not for sale….:)

Wha t a fucking nonsense i have been using intel all my life , last time i went to buy CPU the shop owner didn't want to sell me amd processor cause i told him im building pc for gaming and amd is trash , ill take intel anyday bro anyday

Intel GPUs are by far their best products right now. Everything else, not so much

Bad management

It really doesn't help that they apparently still have not received any of the grant money they should be getting from the CHIP act in the US after 2 years.

Yeah diversity brought intel into the ground

Israeli company scammed people for years

Vex. I'm glad someone finally brought this up. Where did the billions of dollars that the Chips Act gave Intel go? Nobody mentions that, and now people say Intel needs more money! Instead of building multiple multi-million dollar factories, they should have used the billions to make a GD CPU dramatically the best they've ever done. Clue: That's how they became successful. To miss this is as irrational as electing a rapist to the presidency. I subscribed. Rob

The hare slept too long and now the tortoise wins

The way they handled the issues with the Raptor Lake CPUs is the reason I'd never buy an intel CPU ever.

actually nah, watch ztt, intel is still alive, and kicking.

They need to sort out their cpu naming as its confusing for amateur pc builders or anyone looking to buy an intel pc. Lower the prices, reduce power consumption and heat. Stop releasing 10% upgrade crap every year and stop all shady practices.

They haven’t renovated like forever. Pentium 4 was their attempt and they flopped while Ryazan chiplet design prevailed.

Diversity seems not to be a strengh. Rather a downfall.

Pat a good CEO? Nah he said something that offended TSMC and now TSMC remove the 40% chip discount for Intel.

He is also the guy who removed Jim Keller Royal Core to chase for AI. which will be his ultimate downfall when AI bubble burst.

Intel are cards have actually found a few niches like a lot of people run them on home servers for their transcode performance

Lol wasn't intel delisted recently? Hey, that's capitalism for ya. I mean, unless they fail and we foot the bill for their bailout

It's funny really, I remember how AMD was the "budget" choice for so many years, good performance, but unstable and extremely power hungry CPUs like the FX-8000 series. Then Ryzen 3 hit the market and it shook things hard. Looked like Intel needed to start upping the game, now we look at the 9850X3D and the picture is flipped. With AMD having the better, more stable and more power efficient CPU, while Intel's top of the line CPUs draw so much power, most CPU coolers struggle to keep it from throttling all, with disappointing performance gains compared to past generations, to speak nothing of how they sweeped under the carpet so many critical defects about their processors that caused damage to so many user's CPUs, which they only admitted to after getting caught and pressed with enormous amounts of evidence.

Now if only nvidia could get hit next...

Wasn't that long ago AMD was in a similar position. They had beaten Intel to the punch with 64-bit processors in the early 2000s. Intel though dumped their underwhelming Netburst architecture and revived P6, now branded Pentium M. These performed much better than AMD's (and IBM's) CPUs in mobile applications. Then Core 2 was launched in 2006 based on the same architecture, along with a cushy deal with Apple. AMD meanwhile had been coasting on Athlon 64 for a while. Their follow up K10 chips weren't bad (TLB bug notwithstanding), but were generally outperformed by Core 2. Then AMD made a really boneheaded move, deciding to focus on low price and performance-per-watt rather than raw power. These "Bulldozer" CPUs were just garbage. They were slower than K10, and were absolutely smoked by Intel's offerings in both performance and efficiency. It almost killed the company. The only thing that saved them was their acquisition of ATI. Sony and Microsoft wanted an easy-to-program single chip solution for their 8th gen consoles. AMD was the only company pairing x86 CPUs with high performance GPUs. That was enough to carry them through the slump, and fund R&D on their next architecture. So basically Ryzen only exists because of the PS4. Of course it helps that Intel basically took AMD's weak position for granted and pulled an Amber Herd.

Intel's failure to invest in the new ASML machines which all went to TSMC. Self goal.

Should Intel just make GPUs now?

The government won't let this company fail

They actually stagnated the market for years, kept us on quad core for quite some time, marginal performance increases as well. Then, bang!!! AMD got their act togeather.

EARLY LIFE

wait for dragon to snap and rise 😂

I don't think I can ever actually become an AMjeet though

Intel has been fabbing himself too hard for too long and get exhausted and wasted yet still can't make a blast. Maybe Intel needs a helping hand from TSMC to do the fabbing job for him and use all energy left for designing job instead.

Userbenchmark editors when Intel's new CPUs are so bad there is nothing good to be said about them: * walter white collapses onto the ground *

It’s a shame how management tends to fuck things over

IMHO, Intel has been one of the sleaziest corporations on the planet for decades now. Deliberately trying to drive competitors out of business by rigging their supply contracts to manufacturers so they were not allowed to buy a competitors CPUs should have resulted in their executives being put in prison. Then there were their artificially high prices. Typical robber baron practises. So when you see Intel starting to get what they deserve and have coming to them, why weep? And any government subsidizing private business is government corruption. If a company can't manage their finances and needs to get any government to take taxpayer dollars and give it to them, then they are incompetent. Government doesn't give the average Joe or Jane taxpayer dollars when they mismanage their business affairs, so why should Intel or any corporation be gifted your money? I've been around too long to fall for Intel and their ilks lies and corruption.

I think the big problem is that Pat tried to make Intel work the way it used to but realized it just isn't working; AMD is both efficient and fast because Intel slept on the success and now they see that AMD is very strong for both consumers and enterprises.

Like you said, Pat is Intel's first hope in a really long time so as a CEO it isn't easy to clean the crap the previous CEOs created for a long time. Under his management we've seen a truly new architecture, discrete GPUs, improvements for their foundries even if they can't use them. Intel needs to get their crap together.

Battlemage is now their last consumer hope and they gave a lot of potential because under the same conditions, Intel's 140V (Intel's iGPU) is actually faster than Radeon 890M, so Battlemage has the potential to be faster than RDNA 3 and Ada Lovelace and maybe be at the same level as RDNA 4 and RTX 50 series at least in the mid range. They kept the costs down in Alchemist so for a few things their GPUs looked really good; and for myself. I want to build my first desktop PC during these 3 months to move on from my laptop and I really hope Battlemage fixes the problems Alchemist had with for example non compatible with old games or unstable drivers. If they fix that I don't really see why I should get RDNA 4 or a high end RDNA 3 card with the price lowered.

I'm guessing u don't know about intels first attempt at gpus before arc that never went to market. Larrabee

Why is having people from different backgrounds and cultures good? DEI is killing companies

And also Intel Motherboards are more expensive their AMD counterpart.

Intel socket type number is ridiculous. I am proud folks fed up with this scum....

Letting managers become ceo of tech companies usually end with company going extinct.

they overestimated their 14nm++++++++++++++++ tech that they think AMd would not rise from the disaster of the bulldozer lineup.. then everything went to sh*t when they announced the zen..

As much I hated intel , I really don't want it to die down ,
how will I trash talk my friends who own Intel chips ....

Good video, btw i'm gonna checkout those i5 12400 on my wishlist

Feels bad because I loved my 8700K but I retired that CPU last year for the 7950x3D

I'd like to switch over to AMD permanently but I've been burned pretty badly several times by video games like Bastion, Earth Defense Force, and Space Marine suddenly going into a kernel panic with an AMD CPU when they run perfectly fine on an Intel CPU.

Your voice is like STEVE CARELL

Diversity preacher and a sellout, coincidence? 🤔

Nope. The only problem that Intel has is its reputation. vPro is definitely a good backdoor for 5👁️'s interest but definitely not for the Global majority.

CUDIMM is currently Intel's primary offering, but the company needs to rediscover a new architecture for its Core i series. Instead of innovating, Intel continues to stretch older architecture, and this strategy may ultimately lead to its downfall. AMD faced a similar struggle with the FX series, which nearly put them out of business for a decade. Intel could find itself in a comparable situation. While memory technology has been holding up Intel, along with advancements in video technology, at 10GB/s, does the chip really stand the test of time? Additionally, Intel is increasingly locking its standards, like Wi-Fi 7, which it only supports for Intel CPUs, and even locking out competitors from Thunderbolt. Meanwhile, Apple has already figured out these standards and is no longer dependent on Intel. In fact, Apple took a gamble with Intel and ultimately played a significant role in pushing them out of business. The new CEO of Intel is arguably the biggest problem, much like Tim Cook was for Apple at the time. Paul was a better CEO and had a clearer vision. Furthermore, Intel has become increasingly "woke" and aligned with the Democratic Party, which limits its ability to work with Republicans or lower its standards and regulations to remain competitive. The DIMM era may be coming to an end if Intel were to license CUDIMM technology.

if intel sells out im gonna be so pissed
i only buy intel, please do better intel i dont want to switch over
