lazy intel

simple answer is they never NEEDED to, AMD had nothing even remotely close to as powerful as the ENTRY LEVEL HEDT chips for 5 years, why would Intel screw themselves out of profits all those years? do you think ANY company does anything to benefit the consumer that doesn't benefit there pocket books more? if people wanted more cores nothing stopped them from buying Xeons.

it's true that they didn't need to. but it's not like they wouldn't have made a dime if they did. they have huge stacks of money. they could've been adding cores each generation to the consumer line and still have easily made a profit on every chip, even at a $320 - $350 pricepoint. that way when ryzen launched, intel could've already had 8 core mainstream chips to go with amd's ryzen 8 core mainstream chips. it could've been a great cpu generation. but no. instead we're left with overheating and unimpressive chips.

 

intel tripped on their own dick.

i now dub skylake x : 'boiling lake'. perfectly fitting. although 'skylake eggs' is also very good.

How about Frylake?
