Threads are not cores. Threads are just a hardware mechanism to share a core. When you have high throughput workloads and high utilization, they don’t really help that much.

AMD had to go through HPC to get there. Without those exascale HPC wins and the cred it gave them, they would not have been a trusted option for AI.

It should have been their #1 priority five years ago. They lost so much time on nVidia that I can’t see them ever catching up at all. Even Intel got the memo earlier than AMD and by all means Intel is not a fast moving ship.

I understand. But my attitude is, if the money got spent, then it ain’t really there. I judge by the net income and look at the larger picture. Xilinx is paying off, but it had a cost.

In the end, the only question that really matters is: Is Victor Peng really Ip Man, while NVIDIA is Shaolin, or is it the other way around (or neither, or both, …)? (eh-eh-eh!)

It would be more realistic if you’re interested in showing the real money/cash they are making to show their non-GAAP net income that only includes actual money outlays.

Not so much that AMD didn’t sell enough this quarter, as much as they sold a whole heck of a lot a year ago.

The above statement is not very accurate, Bergamo has more threads than Sierra Forest (256T vs 144T): Bergamo Zen4c cores are dual threads while the Sierra Forest E-Cores are mono-thread.
