Chip giant Advanced Micro Devices made history this year when it surpassed Intel by market cap for the first time ever. Intel has long held the lead in the market for computer processors, but AMD’s been on the rise since it acquired adaptive chip company Xilinx in February for $49 billion. Now, AMD chips are in two Tesla models, NASA’s Mars Perseverance land rover, 5G cell towers and the world’s fastest supercomputer. CNBC sat down with CEO Lisa Su to hear about AMD’s remarkable comeback, huge bets on new types of chips in the face of a PC slump, new restrictions on exports to China, and shifting industry trends.

Intel is like a plane. When you start to sink down, it takes time to see the stock fall. But when you're going down, it takes a while to curve the stall and go back up. Intel has had a financial officer as CEO for the past 20 years, and it has allowed AMD to secretly steal more and more market share. Pat Gelsinger is a brand new CEO and now is trying to pull Intel back. He is much better than any other CEO, as he is not scared to make Intel non-profitable for a couple years, if its a long term investment in Intel. He will build its foundry business up and in 5 years they will be much bigger than AMD.

It's healthy to have serious competition, to keep one on his/her toes, something apparently the Chinese --- or at least those they promote to rule over & to make life and death decisions for them --- don't believe in. Anyway, I remember, as noted here, that a few years ago, AMD was known mostly as a player in the gaming industry, whereas Intel ruled everywhere else in high-end computation. And, yes, I still remember a time (working with students) that Apple was so insignificant, so small, it literally begged students, teachers, and schools to take its products. But it caught on soon afterward, both as a luxurious and as a high-end technology everyone who's eccentric, creative, or fashionable wanted... all over the world!

These machines, which cost approximately $140 million each, shine exceptionally narrow beams of light onto silicon wafers that have been treated with “photoresist” chemicals. Intricate patterns are created on the wafer where the light comes into contact with the chemicals, which are carefully laid out beforehand. ASML sells the relatively rare EUV machines to a handful chipmaking giants including TSMC, Samsung and Intel. Each machine reportedly has over 100,000 components and it takes 40 freight containers or four jumbo jets to ship. Last year, ASML sold just 31 of these enormous pieces of equipment, according to its financials. It has sold over 100 in total.

At the current price of roughly $91 per share, this investment would hold a value of about $282,640 -- a return of approximately 5,550%. This far exceeds the roughly 110% return for the S&P 500 over the same period. Also, the stock may have more room to grow as many analysts still consider AMD a hot growth stock."

It's a good time to look at upgrading if you were put off by the high prices and shortages during 2020 and 2021. Prices are coming back down and the performance of some of the new tech is insanely good. I just switched from an old Intel i7 system to the new AMD Ryzen 9 cpu and I'm seeing big performance improvements in games that I thought were GPU bound. The other big revalation for me was PCI-E 4 class M.2 NVME SSDs (The "hard drive"). I installed one with 7000MB (Yes Bytes, not bits!) read, 6000MB write. Software install speeds etc are so much faster than they were, and this is PCI-E 4 storage, the motherboard also has the PCI-5 storage support which will be even faster when I upgrade in a few years (Drives are just entering the market so I'd expect high prices for a while on PCI-E 4 M.2 drives).

Of Course, replacing an old i7 Intel system with a newer system will also improve performance. That's not so amazing. This is just an AMD promotion video. Want to see more an independent view. Intel and NVDIA are improving as well. iX, 12th and 13 gen, RTX technology. Maybe AMD is a better choice with price and system performance for the big companies where prices does matter. AMD is absolute at the top if prices doesn't matter. Have a complete Intel based 12th gen system and a RTX videocard. It came not at top, but 3th place is not so bad. AMD was at the top. But if you look at the prices? It was much cheaper to choose for Intel and NVIDIA system than for an all AMD system with top products. Note: PCI-E 4 class M.2 NVME? Just choose Samsung NVME M.2's much higher performance than the reads/writes you have stated .

To date, my home PC has a Core i9-9900K, 64GB RAM, and an RTX 3090 24GB GPU. On the other hand, my Work PC has a first gen AMD Threadripper 1920X (12-core/24-thread), 128GB of RAM, and a dual GPU config RTX 2070 8GB and GTX 1660 Ti 6GB. All 7 of my laptops have Intel CPUs, I've never owned an AMD CPU laptop. I have a QNAP TVS-672XT NAS that's powered by Intel. It's currently running a Core i3 processor, with 32GB of SoDIMM RAM but I'm going to upgrade both the CPU and RAM to a Core i9-9900T (35Watt) CPU and 64GB of SoDIMM RAM, respectively. The NAS currently has 6 x 8TB Western Digital Reds NAS drives and contains 2 x 1TB NVMe M.2 drives in RAID-0 for caching. I'm going to upgrade the 2 x 1TB NVMe caching drives to Inland Performance 4TB M.2 NVMe drives for a total of 8TB caching. Each Inland Performance 4TB drive has a TBW rating of 6,000TB or 6 Petabytes. The NAS has a dual port Thunderbolt 3 card installed and an open PCIe slot. I may throw a dual 10GbE network card in there some day, but I won't need it now since it already has a 10GbE port built into the chasis. I work in IT as an NSA (Network Systems Administrator) and I have a 10GbE network at home, I have a 24-port 10GbE IBM switch that serves as the backbone to the 10GbE network. MSRP of that switch brand new was around $1700, but I got it used for under $200. My home router is a heavily modified Intel Nuc 9 Extreme, Core i9-9980HK CPU with 64GB of DDR4 SoDIMM RAM, 1 x 500GB M.2 NVMe boot drive, 2 x 2TB M.2 NVMe storage drives in RAID-0, the GPU PCIe slot contains a dual 10GbE SFP+ Intel Network Card, the secondary PCIe slot contains a 4-Port Intel 1GbE Network Card. The compute unit itself comes with 2 x Thunderbolt 3.0 ports that I can use for extra networking expansion of 10GbE or storage expansion connected at the speed of up to 40Gbps.

Nah they never said it was impossible. Intel saw it as an opportunity to change to a new instruction set architecture in order to get out of these licensing deals with AMD and Cyrix dated back to IBM requiring a second source. A new ISA would not have the same issue which was being battled in court at the time with Intel trying to kick AMD out. Note, the deal was that AMD and Cyrix would get a copy of Intels CPU design like i386, not just that they could use x86 for their own design. Intel no longer wanted to give the CPU designs and AMD had to reverse engineer it instead (Always with better performance). But while Intel was making the horrid VLIW instruction set architecture called Itanium, AMD was working on their very first Micro-architecture of their own design still based on x86, the performance was much better than Intels Itanium and pretty much determined the choice. To move into the 64 bit space AMD had changed x86 to be 64 bit (not uncommon to extend x86 with new features, this wasn't that complex). This extension was called x86-64, Intel and AMD made a cross licensing deal where any extensions made by either party would be shared for free to keep things compatible. Intel didn't do x86-64 because they wanted a monopoly, and the only way to do that was make a new ISA. Unfortunately they couldn't make it perform any good.

"number of resistors on a chip would double" , I think Moores law was transistors. Aside from that, great video. I love AMD I have 3 PCs home and work and one I built for my MIL and all have AMD Ryzen in them. I also have one 6700XT but the rest are Nvidia.

Ryzen was an Evolutionary Microprocessor in 2017 and Intel was left Chasing it's tail. They are catching up and I think part of that is because they have also hired TSMC to fab their chips for them. As for the GPU side of things, NVIDIA has seen the light and is also doing Chiplets. I hear rumors that the 5000 series cards will have this feature although that is not confirmed yet. And since chip manufacturing is massively expensive they have also shifted manufacturing to TSMC as well. I absolutely love the RYZEN processor. I built 2 computers with 1700X CPUs, A 2700X for a buddy of mine, A5600G for my stepmother and the machine I am on now has a 5800X, plus I bought a laptop with a 4600H. I am also using the Radeon 6700X video card on this machine. I couldn't get a 3rd party card due to inventory shortages so I got a reference card direct from AMD. Still a great product and I cant wait to buy the new card as soon as the market stabilizes a bit.

This whole video's title can be answered really quickly: AMD passed Intel in how small they could make their transistors. It really is this simple. I'm sure a lot of other things happened that also contributed to AMD 'catching up' to Intel, but none were bigger (or smaller) than AMD's transistor size compared to Intel. There is simple almost no substitute for smaller transistors. Smaller transistors allow for lower power consumption, lower costs due to using less silicon, and higher performance (mostly through higher clock speeds). Yes, I'm glazing over a ton of smaller things, but zooming out, this is THE major reason AMD caught up to Intel.

I have a laptop with an AMD which died within 2 months of purchase. I put it to one side, hoping to be able to fix it. I was unable to find the problem. Once out of warranty I took it to some private fixit people who spent 2 months trying to find what was wrong. The CPU was blowing up the internal power supply. Charged me a lot of money to tell me it was not reparable. Never going AMD again... I've had my Thinkpad (with Intel) for 5 years now and never a glitch.

Not having Fabs was pretty logical 15 years ago, but now, this could start to hurt them. Badly! TSMC has, starting with the 5nm process, starkly increased their prices. Their 5/4nm processes have been reported to be twice those of the 7/6nm processes, which were already a 50% increase over 12/10nm. Up until that point, the price increases per node were more like 10-20%. So, what changed? Well, 2 things: 1. The global chip crunch from 2020 onwards, which made those fabs so valuable that they could basically ask any price and get payed. but more important is: 2. The market consolidation into just 3 potential microchip producing companies that can still produce high-end leading-edge computer chips. Those are TSMC, and to a lesser degree, Samsung and Intel. This means that TSMC is pretty much without competition, as neither Samsung nor Intel are up to the task yet for 5nm and smaller high-performance chips, forcing AMD, NVidia, Apple and the like to go with TSMC, and they know it, so they crank their prices sky high to get as much profit as possible. The result: AMD, traditionally the cheaper option, can't compete with Intel on price anymore with desktop CPUs, while NVidia is increasing the prices of their GPUs beyond what most gamers can actually afford. So unless someone can break TSMC's de facto monopoly, chip prices, especially all those different high-powered ones in computers, will rise very sharply over the course of this decade. I expect a mid-range PC or laptop to be closer to two grand by the end of the decade if this trend continues even outside of scalper prices. And Intel will be the cheaper option due to in-house production and packaging making it much cheaper for them than having to accept the overly inflated TSMC pricings.

Sales are down because these companies are pricing their products too high. I wanted to build my PC with just released product but my old PC went down earlier than expected which turned out to be a good thing. There's no way I'm buying a $1K-$1500 GPU, $400-$700 CPU and $500-$1K MB. These companies are out of their minds. Sales are down because people either can't afford it or aren't willing to spend that much on the parts. People built their own because it was cheaper than buying a pre-fab.
