Comment on Intel’s Xeon Platinum 8284 CPU: When 300 MHz Cost $5,500parent

That’s certainly my hope, AMD increasing core counts forced intel to follow suit or lose on multibench workloads to sometimes hilarious extents even when they where ahead on IPC per core.

I don’t care which one wins I just want proper competition again.

Same. I never particularly cared whether I had an AMD or Intel proc when price and quality were comparable. I'll happily choose whichever has the better value proposition. Though Info think AMD had a particularly uphill battle in the server market dominated by clouds that are mainly standardized on Intel. But with such price benefits, I can imagine various providers experimenting with blocks of AMD based compute.
