Alder Lake is Intel’s “Zen 1 Moment” – Will AMD lower Prices?

The i9-12900K, i7-12700K, & i5-12600K are out! Do they meet expectations? How will AMD respond? [SPONSOR: brokensilicon= -20% E-WIN Chairs (USD: https://bit.ly/3u7PPgr, CAD: https://bit.ly/39wQfU5)]


0:00 ADL’s exactly what was promised, people forgot how ahead AMD is…
2:30 Nevertheless, Alder Lake is the biggest Intel launch in a decade!
3:38 How does Alder Lake stack up against Zen 3?
6:50 Look forward to H670 Mobos with Cheap DDR4 non-K i5’s in Q1!
8:53 I recommend Alder Lake now, but look forward to AMD’s Q1 Refresh!
10:38 Four reasons why AMD might not lower prices much…
11:53 (1) AMD has a logistical advantage selling an established platform
13:13 (2) Everything is selling…and Zen 3 isn’t entirely “worse” than ADL
13:53 (3) Most Gamers don’t want to upgrade to Windows 11
14:37 (4) The biggest reason AMD might not drop Zen 3 prices
18:20 The price drop I would do if I was in charge at AMD
19:35 Concluding Thoughts – Intel is back, but not in charge…
