AMD reigns supreme within the gaming CPU market today, but its biggest competitor might be about to usurp the processor potentate from the throne. In a recent interview with CRN, Intel's CEO Pat Gelsinger states that the company's upcoming Alder Lake generation of chips will end AMD's era of dominance.
Admittedly, Gelsinger's statement sounds like a line from Game of Thrones, but the CEO made sure to commend AMD for doing a "solid job over the last couple of years" within the processor scene. Niceties aside, Gelsinger also expressed confidence in team blue's ability to snatch the CPU crown, while also declaring "Intel is back".
"So this period of time when people could say, 'Hey, [AMD] is leading,' that’s over," Gelsinger remarks. "We are back with a very defined view of what it requires to be leadership in every dimension: leadership product, leadership [chip] packaging, leadership process, leadership software, unquestioned leadership on critical new workloads like AI, graphics, media, power-performance, enabling again the ecosystem. This is what we will be doing with aggressive actions and programs over the next couple of years."
