Why has Intel's gross margin more than doubled since Q1 2017? Surely if Ryzen had been a success then Intel's bottom line would have been impacted or stagnated by now?
Why has Intel's gross margin more than doubled since Q1 2017...

How's even possible Intel revenue doubled in the same time all the bad press from the vulnerabilities started coming out? It's ridiculous even thinking about it
Matthew Butler
Revenue didn't double. Profit did. Revenue is only up about ~20% since 2017.
Brandon Ward
probably mobile
AMD mobile is soo fucking delayed from desktop
Lucas Long
Maybe the bad press was a bad meme?
Carter Johnson
The market doesn't care about vulnerabilities that can't be exploited in real world scenarios.

Enterprise customers bought more chips. Data center is a hugely growing business.

*they HAD to buy more chips
**nerfed due to security mitigations
Angel Young
Rome destroys Intel's entire data center product stack, the only reason to use it now is some ad antiquitatem bullshit.

Laptops, servers, high end gaming, professional users.
Only reason you buy AMD is that you're a basement dweller.

By cutting R&D?
James Flores
They just raise high end xeon prices by 20% or something each year, dumbass silicon valley tech companies with too much money will buy anything. The top xeon in 2006 was $1000, rough equivalent model today is $13000.
Adrian Adams
Release the same product over and over again while gutting R&D costs.

Turns out vulnerabilities that don’t effect 99% of workloads and don’t concern anyone who isn’t a server farm aren’t impacting sales. Leave the pajeet echo chamber on Jow Forums once in a while.
David Hall
Server farms are like 60% of the CPU market, dude

>2018
>Intel still dominating a year later
Jordan Allen
Most server farms don't run untrusted code either

Rome launch just weeks away, you and your pozzedfire kind are in for a rude awakening
Easton Flores
Yes my desktop cpu is totally going to suffer from amd vs intel server brandwars /v/ermin shitposting.
Austin Parker
Because they offer superior performance at lower cost and power.

You do realize that EPYC is not considered to be a high risk investment, don't you?
It's on its third year and you've almost never heard of any hardware vulnerability while the other one get gangraped for months.
