#3Also they seem to have tested AMD CPUs in "game mode" which disabled half of the cores (one of two CCXes)...

#4Preorders for the 9900K are 578$ USD.
For that you can get a Ryzen 2700X, a nice motherboard and a 256GB SSD. Performance delta shouldn't be more than 15% deficit for the Ryzen for a few specific games.

#5Does Intel really think this approach is good for them? As a technical person, all I see is a company in trouble with products they need to lie about. This goes beyond market speak - it's deceptive.

#6According to the "honest" reviewers the Intel product is only ~9% faster over all games they tested, not like 50% which is bogus

#7I worked in HPC when NVIDIA started taking serious market share from Intel. My memory of Intel’s performance comparisons were that they were often technically unsupportable once you scratched the surface.
In one case a third party who were demonstrating how much faster Intel Xeon Phi was for deep learning admitted that they were comparing highly-optimised code to unoptimised code in their results.
This doesn’t surprise me at all.

Keep seeing this 'delta' word. From context it is basically like 'difference'. But is there a delta between difference and delta?

#9Decent summary:
> I don’t have too much of an issue with Intel commissioning the report itself, and the Principled Technologies report is very transparent as they clearly state how they tested the games and configured the hardware. The results and testing methods are heavily biased, but they haven’t attempted to hide their dodgy methods. You can dig into the specs and find all the details, it’s still dodgy but it’s a paid report, so it’s somewhat expected.

Delta makes you sound smarter.
