Haven't bought an Intel since 2015. Never felt better.

Me neither, last CPU was an i7 7700k. High five brother.

Like I get it, poor people exist.

Income levels exist.

But we're talking about $300 vs $400, when people are spending $1000+ on GPUs.

The wonderful thing about life is choice and you and only you deciding what you require and not what others deem is required. Secondly you are both presuming and assuming income has relevance to what choice is made, rather than the reality of not wanting an Intel system, but actually wanting an AMD system.

AMDIP happens. Ryzen is awful. Intel is awful. But intel has the superior CPU when it comes to facts not feelings. Why does the entirety of the internet have a hard on for AMD?

The irony is you let your feelings be known when posting: "Why does the entirety of the internet have a hard on for AMD?".

Intel must be really desperate if they resort to this kind of "marketing".

I’ve never actually owned an intel cpu and I started building pc’s 20yrs ago

They both have their places. I own both...

Different people like different things. Simple as that.

The only reason I support AMD is that they are the only competitor to Intel - and competition is the only thing that will get Intel off their lazy butts and develop better CPUs... otherwise the improvements between generations stall and they end up releasing the same thing with minor tweaks.

AMD is the underdog that keeps Intel on their toes... or, at least off their arses

You can be thankfull that there was amd.
If you had one or not.

Or do you like eco systems like apple? Where if you want one, you better pay any price.

AMD also got us the Steam Deck, so... I don't see what's so bad about buying into it?

[D. Flame]

AMD has better performace to dollar ratio.
AMD's APU are pretty amazing.
Lots of things have AMD built in.
AMD works better on Linux, compared to Nvidia.

Etc.

I've built two PCs, one in 2011 and one in 2020. First one used an i5 2400 (the i5 2500 was the Default Standard gaming processor in 2011, I went just a tad lower for budget) and a Ryzen 5 3600 in 2020 (same reason - when you read "build a PC" articles then, it was the standard CPU people mentioned. At least in the "$1k build" articles.)

Both of them were $190 when I bought them. And until last spring, I'd never spent more than $175 for a new GPU (my latest was $250, I get a new one every 4 years).

So no, we're not "all" spending 300-400 on CPUs or $1000+ on GPUs.


(but regardless - when you're working with a budget? $300 vs $400 is a big jump. Picking $300 is how you have $100 more to spend on that GPU or mobo or whatever.)
