I got a 1700X instead of intel because the intel options I had at that price was quite underwhelming. Furthermore AMD is helping technologies progress while intel is hijacking cores, threads and PCIE-lanes from the customers for money.
Now their response to threadripper is a bunch of neutered Xeons? Wtf! And what's up with the RFID tag and CPU not being soldered?
Why would anyone shill intel at this point?

>Is Intel dying? No, but they're getting a lot of bad press and might lose some marketshare in the immediate future. >Why would anyone shill intel at this point? Muh gaymes at 1080p 144hz with a 1080ti.

>buying into the Intel market scheme
almost everything you have ever heard about Intel products being better. CPUs, chipsets, SSDs, etc is BS you have soaked up from marketers.
Except Intel HW NICs, never had an issue with them.
Cooper Walker
Wait
Wtf if the rfid chip doing?
Isaac White
Nothing. Ignore it. Trust us.

CPU comes with killer unlockable features. All you need is a handy dandy DRM key to activate em.
Jose Cox
Holy shit
So they purposely gimped a $1000+ chip with a toothpaste ihs and DRM you need to pay even more money to unlock

Looks like AMD might win this generation, which is really good for us consumers. Intel has been getting lazy lately, they need a good kick in the ass.
Landon Flores
Intel Networking is good shit, swear by it. Intel NICs are so top notch that most of the better AMD motherboards use them.
Ian Sanchez
It is almost as if Intel CPU designs are handled by executive meetings instead of engineering meetings.
This is what people deserve for buying into their garbage.

Intel's biggest mistake was not making chips for iPhones. Steve Jobs begged them to fab chips for them but Ottelini refused.
Now they have no mobile play and desktops are dying out. Apple's making the fastest ARM chips in business and no one can touch them.
And the rest is history. RIP Intel.
Pic very much related.

Look it up, the 2000 dollar i9 is coming with RFID, they know their priorities
Evan Moore
This looks like some shit that's going to be covered in a future episode of LGR Tech Tales. "What happened?"

RFID: In Solder: Out

ARM was ultimately the smarter choice for a better product. IMO with x86 under the hood, it might've been too slow or too battery hungry to catch on.
Sebastian Evans
>intel >made in america
Easton Jones
Apple faggots wouldn't care if it was power hungry, they'd find any reason to justify their phone choice.
Evan Wright
>cheap AMD that will probably melt and start a fire within 2 years intel*

>wont destroy itself, Enjoy your $2000 shitty unsoldered CPU put together with mediocre paste. Don't forget not to overclock too, goyim
