Will AMD Overtake Intel<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It seems that Intel has always had the upper hand in CPU\ndevelopment, while AMD was doggedly playing second fiddle, in terms of revenue\nand number of units sold. That has changed in recently years, especially in\nEurope, due largely to AMD\u2019s Ryzen chips. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

AMD\u2019s company shares are on the rise<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their impressive price-to-performance ratio matched against\nIntel\u2019s floundering 14nm process flipped the shift to AMD, with company shares\ntripling and quadrupling in some cases. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2019 could be a breakout year for AMD<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, competitive pricing plays into this shift quite\nheavily, along with the rise in cryptocurrency. Add AMD\u2019s server market EPYC\nand their strong graphics sector, and 2019 sets the stage for what could be a breakout\nyear for AMD. Their 7nm Zen2 processors should be strong actors in that dance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Favorable performance utilizing less power<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In testing, an 8 core Ryzen chip exhibits favorable\nperformance to Intel’s i9-9900K while using thirty percent less power. That\u2019s\nhuge as it closes the gap in that performance metric. AMD has habitually lagged\nIntel in single-threaded applications, which are extremely important to gamers,\neven more so than number of cores. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Undercutting Intel in price<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Price alone does not cut the mustard, but with AMD\u2019s third-generation\nRyzen chips, we foresee ample opportunity for AMD to undercut Intel in the\nprice-to-performance arena going forward. If sales are any indication of\nshifting trade winds, then investors may be pleasantly surprised. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sales trends<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sales reports are typically compiled by hardware vendors,\nand stores like Amazon and Newegg contribute to those numbers. AMD\u2019s Threadripper,\nfor example, is competing favorably against Intel\u2019s Core i9 family in North\nAmerica. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking back<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It wasn\u2019t that long ago that Intel commanded a 98.5% server\nmarket share and AMD a measly 1.5%. How times have changed. Even so, AMD was\nalways considered to be Intel\u2019s single serious rival \u2013 fast forward from the\nBulldozer disaster in 2011 to today\u2019s Zen architecture. When Intel released the\n1st<\/sup> microprocessor in 1971, it\u2019s die was a whopping 10,000nm, about\nthe thickness of an extremely thin strand of human hair. Today, we\u2019re looking at\n7nm technology. Folks, that\u2019s tiny!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AMD\u2019s Threadripper versus Intel\u2019s i9 processor<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember when AMD announced its 16 core 32 thread\nThreadripper CPU and two weeks later, Intel announced its 18 core i9 processor.\nThe difference? One thousand dollars for the Threadripper versus two thousand\ndollars for the i9, and the shocker was that the Threadripper was just as fast\nas the i9. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flooding the market with AMD processors<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We now see increasing numbers of Ryzen desktop CPUs, EPYC\nCPUs for servers, Threadripper and Ryzen APUs for laptops AND that\u2019s a good\nthing. We need competition in the processor market. As AMD introduces new architectures,\nit now seems Intel is playing catch up instead of the other way around. Who is\ngoing to win this war? Hopefully, consumers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
