This, but mostly caused by lack of groundbreaking changes in the market of CPUs. Stagnation is becoming a reality.

AMD getting back on track, I guess.

Nothing, multicore architectures are the natural progression after we are hitting the limit of current single core performance with the means we have available.

AMD was the first one to crack the secret and start adding more cores instead of working on making one core better.
The actual funny thing about this is that the first panel of OPs picture is a decade old already and was made to make fun of AMD for mindlessly adding more cores instead of working on single core performance like everybody though they should and like Intel did.

What's causing both companies to rely on parlor tricks? Were die shrinks the only thing Intel had?

Why does Intel still perform better at equal clockrates/cores?

>Why does Intel still perform better at equal clockrates/cores?
Literary marketing secrets AMD has not figured out yet but Intel knows since the 70's.

What does marketing have to do with measurable performance?

>Why does Intel still perform better at equal clockrates/cores?
Better instruction decoder

>The actual funny thing about this is that the first panel of OPs picture is a decade old already and was made to make fun of AMD for mindlessly adding more cores

That's the point retard, it's irony.
