  1. Intel marketing crashing and burning since forever.

    Intel finally reveal they are behind userbenchmark this whole time lol

    Can’t believe this is the approach Intel is taking. Can’t win on merit so better start taking the moral high ground and slander, so surreal.

    Note: I just double checked the link and it’s been taken down now LOL

    https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/404.html?ref=https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/content-details/794505/core-truths-how-the-latest-technology-is-not-always-what-it-seems.html

    In their slides they were referring to AMD as sleazy car salesmen selling snake oil products and misleading ‘halftruths’. One of their examples was that core amount doesn’t matter while comically in another slider saying u need an I9 for esport titles. Referring to their products as outdated architecture, rather than focusing on actual performance. My mind is just so blown you’d think from this powerpoint that they’re a nonprofit charity trying to educate people on sustainability. When instead it’s the most fucking anti-consumer company on the planet feeding us minor upgrades alongside drastic price increases for years on end until competition entered the market. 14nm+++++++++ and yearly motherboard swaps. Got my Ryzen Tomahawk b450 in 2018 Ryzen 2700 for 280€ for the combo and in 2022 upgraded to a cheap R5600x that I’m intending to sit on for years unless my needs change. I would never have been able to do anything like it with intel. Just the idea of taking apart my PC to get the motherboard out pains me

    The pot calling the kettle black. You can not believe marketing from either company at face value, but this move from intel is just in bad taste. AMDs naming and marketing may be somewhat misleading at times, but so is intels, and they commonly have L cpu releases.

    Ok, so this crossmark thing. I think is even worse than userbrainrot.

    First result on google for “crossmark” links to some random thing related to heath or something. So intel is relying on someone who isn’t even on top 2 on google. Great job!

    If you search up “crossmark benchmark”, you get this site from bapmark. I think it’s the site intel is referring, because there isn’t anyone else. And if you look up their results. WTF?

    TIL the 11th gen i5(1145g7) beats one of AMD’s best in the ryzen 7 7840hs. Why did intel bother with alder and raptor lake when tiger lake was already 2 generations ahead is beyond me. Also, it’s apparently better than the i7 11 something something. Very easy to understand there Intel!

    Also, they have no tests with ryzen 7000 desktop. Also, apparently, 13900k>13900k>13900k>13700>13700>13900k. ??????

    I feel like I am losing my marbles or something. But even if I am using this completely wrong, this is the same company who blanket statement said i9 for 15+, so tech illiterate are considered.

    TLDR: Either Intel isn’t considering the tech illiterate in the slideshow bashing AMD for not considering the tech illiterate, or I discovered userbrainrot 2.0
