AMD processors are starting to give way to Intel in terms of price and performance
According to TechRadar, the performance gap between top-end AMD and Intel CPUs is narrowing, surpassed in importance by the difference in price and power consumption.Although the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X maintains a slight advantage in multi-threaded tasks (62,260 vs 58,734 points in CPU Mark), the Intel Core Ultra 7 265KF leads in single-threaded tests (4926 vs 4876 points).At the same time, the price of an Intel processor is almost half lower ($270 versus $501 for AMD), and its power consumption is noticeably lower (125 W versus 170 W).Experts note that beyond narrow professional tasks, AMD's advantage becomes less noticeable, which is reminiscent of the situation in which Intel previously found itself. #game
