Why did Intel fuck up so badly?

I still won't give my hard earned rupees to the AMD Pajeets until they open source the PSP though. It's a dealbreaker for me.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't both Intel and AMD backdoored?

they got complacent, but they'll improve. their process improvements are getting a lot better despite the slowdown in node switches. In this respect, they seem to be on a much better track than TSMC or GloFo.

Ice Lake should be the next big improvement for them, as it'll be their first new architecture in a long time. AMD are still a couple years behind, but if they price competitively it should help them stay relevant and keep the prices honest.

It'll be interesting over the next few years to see AMD in a recovered and competitive form. The ATI acquisition, the subsequent awful hd 2k series, and bulldozer architecture all hurt them for a long time. Great to see AMD back on track again with Ryzen, and looking forward to what they can bring with Vega.

Intel was never good, they were lucky enough to gain a monopoly then spent decades trying to eliminate competition rather than focusing on technology.

They only pulled ahead when they could blow 10x as much on R&D + fabs as everyone else, then smartphones came along and made it viable for companies other than intel to invest in expensive chip fabrications factories. The funny thing is apparently they turned down Apple when they were looking for iphone and ipad hardware.

I dont give a fuck if amd does it

Intel has always been extremely inefficient, spending many times more on R&D than their competition for at most marginal gain.

Now that AMD had an extremely uncompetitive platform for the first time in many years, they decided to do fuckall and sit in their Monopoly.
Now that they do, which they didn't expect at all, they won't have a competitive product ready until 2020.
They also get fucked pretty damn hard by their 10nm process and literally 1.5% yields.
