I pray Intel implodes after the recent news that their CPUs have an oxidation issue.
Is it oxidation? I thought it was a voltage control issue, where they randomly sent too much power to components and burned them out. And over time, those burnt out components and errors would compound and your CPU would essentially get Alzheimer’s.
I can check later. I distinctly remember "oxidation" from a GamersNexus video but I could be remembering wrong.

Nah. Too many Intel fanboys. I know dozens of braindead gamers who insta buy Intel because (a decade ago) Intel had the best performance. I imagine they have thousands of equally braindead customers.
Intel was struggling beyond the oxidation stuff. ARM and RISC are gonna make them obsolete even if AMD doesn't.
You have some good points. Their Intel "7" node isn't even seven nanometers, their CPUs could probably heat households in Siberia, and their GPU drivers suck.
