    The hilarious thing is AMD probably won’t need to learn their lesson: their chips are using about half the watts for the same performance. This is firmly an Intel failure and them jucing the silicon past it’s ability to cope to win benchmarks.

    And their Zen5 cores look to be even more efficient than Zen4, so I’m sure some engineers at AMD are laughing about this whole thing.

      One thing I find very amusing about this is that AMD used to have a reputation for pulling too much power and running hot for years (before zen and bulldozer, when they had otherwise competetive CPUs). And now intel has been struggling with this for years - while AMD increases performance and power efficiency with each generation.
