Last time that I checked marketshare and financial numbers, Ryzen impact was a round error.
And not all cores are the same, so number of cores performance mean very little.
And benchmarking a bit these with most threads $28 vs $156 (actually that is even Xeon 8180)

Even Linus Torvalds said in august how he "seriously considering upgrading to AMD Threadripper", but he ended like Gaddafi very soon after
I mean really, once mafioso is always mafioso. These are not CoCs nor SJWs nor you have problem understanding emotions Linus, that is real mafia right thereLast edited by dungeon; 29 September 2018, 06:50 PM.

Yeah, I think I agree. I'm fairly sure it was Fred Weber that designed the front end for K7, and then from a higher position managed the entire design for K8. And yet I constantly hear references about Jim Keller designing K8.... I'm not sure what to make of it.
EDIT: I remember watching a interview with Fred Weber back when he was AMD CTO, it was Athlon X2 had launched, where he in layman terms described a theoretical 8-way x86 pipeline. And this was at a time when K8 cores were 3-way pipelines, this thing would have been super wide. My personal theory is that he actually tried making something like it and it wasn't realistic. And that's why it took so long for K10 to launch and why it was nothing more than a stopgap.
Zen was designed by the Zen team, leaded by Suzanne Plummer, with Mike Clark as lead engineer for Zen.

Those figures aren't about "bucks per thread".
Even Linus is not stupidly one sided so he expressed how he "seriously considering upgrading to AMD Threadripper" in august and some people built Threadripper WX machine for him, nVidia F included

Still extrapolating wildly? Let's look again at the sentences.
"Um... no, it isn't (or it shouldn't be, anyway). Their job is to make processors that people want to buy."
There is nothing in this statement that says this is his own wish about what Intel would do. No "afaik", no "imho" no, "I think", no "I would like to".
This is stating a fact.
