Despite Intel having flopped and floundered for years... They still control 75% of the desktop market.
...And despite controlling 75% of the market, their financials look terrible.
They need to streamline the business and make it more efficient, they *should* be fine to operate at 50% marketshare, not struggle at 75%.
It also showcases how much of a hill that AMD has to climb... 25% of the market after years of beating the competition with a faster, cheaper and better quality product... And this is also why they seem to struggle to have relevancy in the GPU space. - Mindshare.
Mindshare is a powerful thing, even when you have the superior product, it's often hard to beat the popularity contest that is associated with a brand.
I'll probably settle for a Ryzen 9 9950X3D when it releases rather than the lower core count 9800X3D, it will be a decent upgrade over the old 5950X I am currently using.
