With the release of the new generation Ryzen of AMD, the war is launched between AMD and Intel.
Each announces its heavy artillery of the R9 for AMD and the i9 for Intel.
Even if, as far as I am concerned, these CPUs are too expensive, it must be able to influence the price of all current processors.
For AMD: these are consumer versions of processors currently dedicated to servers with 10 to 16 physical cores for 20 to 32 logic. It heats from ... 125w to 155w.
