Quote from NetTecture:I just wish AMD would not be so damn far behind the curve. They are slower per frequency per core (this is called IPC - instructions per core). They have way fewer cores.
You know the answer to this... Intel stole/robbed all the talent and Intellectual Property from AMD many years ago. This set them up at a disadvantage and it is still haunting AMD. The minor fines that Intel had to pay were nothing compared to the profits they see today
