> they're not winning the x64 war?

That's probably the strongest mis-statement I've heard this week. At least, it seems AMD have been the x86-64 leaders for several years now.

Why are you thinking AMD aren't winning?



By what metric? AMD is making headway fast but intel still controls 76% of the server market.[1]

By precisely what metric are AMD the leading x86-64 vendor? Intel still outsells them.


EPYC?

I don't think I even know anyone (including in businesses) who buy Intel for anything any more, and it's been that way for a few years.


That's why you want to look at data rather than people you know https://www.servethehome.com/amd-epyc-9005-turin-turns-trans...

I think Epyc will get there within a few years, it has great momentum and Intel's response has been pretty weak.


Stock price delta over the past five years is a good metric since the market is efficient and traders themselves use all available information.


Heh!


Poe's Law in action. I can't tell if this is serious or satire.

EDIT: Though I'm leaning towards satire.


Imagine being this naive in 2025. The market isn't rational.
