AMD Vega 10 GPU Weakens AMD Ryzen’s Superior Gaming CPU Bid; Intel Remains Threat Amid Benchmark Upset
ByAMD Ryzen has all the glory of being the best unofficial CPU in the gaming world plus the potentially outstanding impact of its highly anticipated Vega 10 GPU. Celebrating its unprecedented victory over the previously held most powerful Intel Core i7 6900K, AMD is facing the hardest battle of sustaining its leadership.
The next problem AMD Ryzen has to face is Intel's aggressive promotional activities. According to PC Games N, AMD has yet to recover in its last legal battle with Intel. This incident happened back in 2001 when AMD filed a complaint with the European Commission alleging the Intel Company of dubious practices to discourage loyal and potential CPU customers from using AMD chips.
AMD Vega 10 will be at risk of being used in AMD Ryzen in case Intel tap on such dirty moves again to secure its market share. The case favored AMD when the EC declared Intel responsible for violating Article 82 of the European Commission Treaty by making alleged "payments to prevent the sales of specific rival products."
The case money has eased AMD's cash flow but it failed to void the damages it brought upon the company and its business psychology. However, the AMD Ryzen launch atmosphere is somehow feistier whereas the AMD Vega 10 keeps on gathering positive impressions among gaming fans. The best time to prove AMD Vega 10 is during AMD's Game Developers Conference 2017 which it is expected to take the center stage.
Besides, AMD has definitely brought caution to Intel's base as AMD Ryzen made a direct hit with its superior performance and incredibly low tag price. Selling lesser by half the price of Intel's flagship CPU, AMD Ryzen also offers five different alternatives to fit just right to every available GPU compartment.
The best thing to do right now starts the countdown for AMD's Feb. 28 event at the GDC 2017 and savor the glory of AMD Ryzen and if lucky enough, catch AMD Vega 10 live for the first time, Racing Junky reported.
