Ah true, I forgot that AMD needs to compete with other companies wanting TSMC capacity.

I’m on an AM4 platform so if I’m upgrading, it’ll be to a newer and higher core count AM4 CPU, kinda stuck there. I have no appetite for upgrading to a DDR5 based platform, otherwise I’d be sorta considering Intel right now as AMD’s starting to turn on consumers even more than Intel, as was to be expected once they got big enough.

Prices aside, if they keep releasing on the same socket for some time I’ll consider them a primary option (under the assumption that my motherboard will support it and not dead by then).
Intel mentioned to plan something along those lines but until they are showing proof, I’ll keep them on 2nd place.
