In the article, they draw conclusions from the direct comparison of the annual evolution of graphics card sales figures.

And as the Hardware Enthusiasts know :troll:, these figures are mixed with economic trends (crisis), the growth of console use over PC (games), and software optimization (Intel iGPU especially).

Crisis = fewer sales in general, hardware lasts longer (gamers update their graphics cards less, and business computers with low-end graphics).

Games = you can already play almost everything in 2D with integrated graphics, indie games and emulators, and the growth of consoles (because it's easier than playing on PC :D).

Software = you can already use integrated graphics to process video using its native instructions, and for casual 3D, almost anything will do, better dedicated, but it can be old.

Salu2!

Well, any competition will be welcome. People who bought an Intel 2500K - 2600K years ago still have a very competent computer thanks to Intel's few advances. Which is good, because it means you don't have to change your computer every few years, but it's also bad, because it advances more slowly, and the development that has been seen in graphics, for example, has not been equivalent to the development in micros, although they are different technologies and are not comparable.

In my case, I have had Intel almost always, except for the current micro, an FX 8350, because it was on sale; but I think I still have a few years before I need to change my micro, because honestly, for the use I give to the computer, I have more than enough. But I understand the frustration of those who use the computer to work, or simply like to be at the cutting edge, of seeing the few advances of recent years.

So if AMD manages to come out with a micro that performs not too far from Intel, it will be good for the market, because AMD has been selling the same thing for years.

I just think that what the anglophones call an NDA is a complete load of rubbish; it goes from being used as a resource against competition (pfff), to being used as a marketing tool, seasoned with "hype". :wall:
But anyway, that's just the way it is. :ffu:

Elementary is one of my pending subjects.
I find it a very interesting distro with a very attractive aesthetic, but due to lack of time I have not had the opportunity to try it.

More memory usage OMG.

Always interesting, and more so if this forces AMD to release more parts of their proprietary drivers. With AMD/Nvidia it's the same for me as Intel/AMD, the only thing that interests me is a real competition that can benefit the user, whether on Windows or GNU/Linux, where for years the best option has been the combination of Nvidia/Intel if you need good graphics performance.

Everything it offers is very interesting, especially I like the fact that you can send commands from your mobile. A shame that KDE and I divorced a long time ago...

So it paints more than well. My netbook is not much use anymore, but well, for what I use it for I will keep waiting.

Despite being manufactured since late 2015, they say Intel will delay them until distributors have practically liquidated the current LGA 1150 stock (Haswell and Broadwell) and there are very few Skylakes left.

It is estimated that this will not happen before 2017, despite the fact that Kaby Lake was expected for October-November 2016.

And there will be a paradoxical situation where you go to the store and you have 2014 micros that, if you look at the intel website with the FPO, their warranty has expired or there are months missing (intel offering 3 years)… unless you present the corresponding invoice... the distributors are clearly annoyed because they cannot liquidate a stock that doesn't go down and with which to buy the new micros that people want... because the price difference is minimal.

We will see when they come out and how they come out because the normal thing would be that they had more Mhz or better TDP at the same speed.

In fact, and in reality, this Tock is not the first that Intel has done... the Haswell Refresh family that came out in 2014 was precisely an optimization of Haswell that brought a standard improvement of no less than 500Mhz in the top range (4770K Vs. 4790K) and a patent improvement in the OC section, in addition to several things that had been patched to the Haswells.
