I feel we are talking super computers, something NASA might use in it's space program. Nice to see AMD is doing well with there processors.

I quickly read the article, 51% for AMD vs 49% for Intel but Intels Core i9
9900K 8 core 16 thread may give Intel sales a boost. It can run about 5 Ghz. Price is about $580, for me this is a super computer we used to read about.

From that it seems like they are neck and neck and one goes ahead a little as they launch a new range. I think that's a healthy way for things to be.
It's 3 years 3 months since I got my 6 core Intel, I see no reason to replace it yet though.

Ryzen 3000 series are coming soon, I would hold fire until they arrive, leaked specs suggests quit a big step forward.

Looks good  I voted undecided as I can't see me needing one. If I were buying today I would get one though. I'll see how much longer this build lasts - I'm surprised the liquid cooler is still going strong - I bet now I said that the thing will go belly up.

This is quite big news, AMD bring 7nm to laptops putting some serious computing power in a mobile machine. These things will be quicker than most peoples desktops

I thought you might be interested Just got to hold fire until the 4000 series of chips start getting put in the laptops, shouldn't be long now, the 6 core Ryzen 5's should be a nice bang for bucks option, in the vid he's only showing the 8 core. It's a bit confusing but the mobile 3000 chips are only the equivalent of the desktops 2000 chips, to get 7nm in a laptop you need the 4000 mobile Ryzen.
