+Sumit Chakraborty Those are still x86 based cpus, but with 64-bit instruction set.

There is no such thing as x64. It's always been x86. That's the architecture. There are two main versions, x86_-2 and x86-64. Last two numbers signify the bits. x86-32 is often abbreviated to x86 while x86-64 is said to be AMD64 or x86-64 as is. *BUT*, AMD64 is NOT the same thing as x86-64. Intel64 is Intel's version of the AMD64. There are small differences but otherwise they act similar so they are considered the same for most intents and purposes, so AMD64 stuff works on Intel64 99.99% of the time. The relatively common exceptions, and pretty rare at that for traditional desktop/laptops, are the architectures. They are as follow: Advanced Reduced instruction set computing (RISC) Machine [aka ARM ] , Power Architecture, and Intel Itanium. And their variants as follow: ARM (32bits), ARM64; Performance Optimization With Enhanced Reduced instruction set computing (RISC) [POWER](32bits), PowerPC (64bits), IA-64 Intel Itanium, or IA-64 was the original success for intel to the 32bits x86, but it never cached on (mainly because it was a different architecture), and thank god it didn't.

+Zoe Guerra Intel has been under numerous investigations from various companies over their dealings. They even engaged in corporate sabotage.

When the case Zoe talks about happened, AMD was actually out-innovating Intel and had better CPUs. Due to Intel's actions though, AMD was pushed out of the market, continued to run into more and more debt and had no money to develop new competitive product lines, had to give up its FAB and has been on the verge of bankruptcy ever-since. In retrospect that EU fine was too little too late, it couldn't stop Intel turning the CPU business into a monopoly.

+Lucas S I'd totally forgotten about my main point when I commented on this, but do a quick search on google for "Intel Compiler cripples AMD CPU", this was the main dirty bit that I wanted to bring up, Intel was caught using horribly inefficient code to cripple AMD performance on any code compiled using their compilers. From what I understand they started doing this shortly after K8 was launched, and have since received a cease and desist. The worst part? As far as I am aware *they are still doing it*.

***** I did a quick search, noone says it happens for sure. just that they think it happened. couldn't find a reliable source to confirm anything, and i don't wanna point fingers without having hard evidence to back up that point. but yes it is possible that it happened

Lucas S Not sure how to link in youtube comments so I'll send you a message, but essentially there is a reddit post with a dozen or so links that provide information about this, as well as one from the FTC back in 2010 documenting how intel is now required to disclose the fact that its compilers discriminate between intel and non-intel CPUs.

More like "fuck capitalism". If the main motive is profit, that's usually what you'll get. Even AMD in the end, that's all they want. They just don't do illegal ways to achieve it. Everyone says competition is good for the consumer. Well, that really is not true unless all you think of is in a box. It's terrible for the environment and a tremendous waste of resources, time, and human effort. You basically got two companies researching the same shit to keep catching up to one another for money. And when (not so much an "if" because power concentrates naturally) a monopoly forms, all the R&D, the progress, and research stops. Because the profit motive makes it that since competition factor is no longer a thing, the best way to achieve that profit is to simply increase the price of your products as high as you want because there is effectively infinite demand. Infinite demand is part of the reason why markets fail in some industries and why designation as "public utilities" are a thing. supply and demand is a model, not the rule. The reason I'm mentioning this is because CPU's are pretty much a necessary commodity nowadays, as in the sense of communications, water, food, and everything else. Cooperation is way better than competition because resources can be pooled and be far more efficiently allocated. The problem with this is that it can lead to collusion [doing good to those involved but hurting all else] or backstabbing [hurting one and benefiting the other] under capitalism. The latter of which happened to AMD as explained in this video (although that isn't really cooperation as much of a licensing agreement). Cooperation can work however in any system that is not capitalism. That ain't corporate thinking. That's your mind on capitalism. No amount of state regulation statism or right-libertarianism will change that as long as our fundamental system stays the same. You want to get rid of this? Then your only choices are fascism or socialism, both or which are better but for starkly and contrasting reasons and approaches different reasons. Also feudalism, but there isn't any serious traction for that these days. I'd be damned if anyone reads all of this tbh.

If you call it a monopoly. I mean, if Wendy's has better food for the same price as McDonalds, it isn't a monoply. McDonalds needs to rethink their food, it isn't a monopoly if the other company screws up.

Well AMD's been forced to stick with the 32nm process for a while now. Intel has had a monopoly on 22nm and now 14nm processes.

AMD has been producing 14nm for a short while now. I think they've been using Samsung's process. This was announced a few weeks ago.

Of course this was for their GPUs. In order to make the break into the CPU market they'll actually need to build their own factories again and invest more in R&D.

AMD seems like they're stuck in the low end of both the CPU and GPU market at the moment. They don't really have any chips (AFAIK) which can compete with the high end Nvidia or Intel products. Thankfully their pricing reflects their low end performance, but they are cut out of a significant portion of the market until they can catch up in performance.

Did you think your channel would grow this much when you made this comment 3 years ago? I have watched many of your videos :)

It's much harder to produce robust multi-threading software than most folk might think: more complexity, risk of running into deadlocks and race conditions etc. That's why as a programmer I'd rather code single-threaded, well-tested, easy to understand applications -- with an optional capability to run the same simple program two or four times simultaneously (task-/process-level SIMD). It's not optimal for multi-core CPUs, but it's so much simpler and more elegant.

+Deepee Ayadges this, one hundred times

If you're using a chip with hyperthreading (i.e. 2 threads per core) that comes to a requirement of 2 cores. Congrats, you need a dual core.

Not really, most games and softwares require a quad or dual core. And even if it's just one high powered core it won't really be good in other softwares.

Yes, but AMD started producing 6, and 8 core CPUs that were as strong as intel's 4 core CPUs. Even if the game/program uses 4 cores evenly (most don't) an intel CPU would still be twice as strong as an 8 core fx chip. (Because of double single core performance and the 4 wasted cores in the fx chip) Amd just started throwing more cores in CPUs for marketing, because in benchmarks that use all the cores evenly it would *_look_* like their CPUs were on par with intel's CPUs, and tons of people fell for this.
