LOL on the low resource constraints. If they don't have cash, they can find an investor. And if no other company or bank believes in their products, they can always try crowd-sourcing with their loyal fanboys.
This is just business. Your product is either profitable or not. Your forecast is either reliable or rubbish.
AMD is pretty small compared to major players in consumer electronics. There are many companies in US and Asia that could provide them a larger R&D budget - both financial institutions and companies within the industry.
It's not about lack of money. It's just that AMD can't (or doesn't want to) make proper mainstream products.
We know they can design and make proper chips. Things they do for other companies (consoles and Macs) are top-notch.
But with their own products they're aiming at niches - that's why they're becoming a niche manufacturer. Simple as that.
In certain way, AMD's desktop GPU are bad ports from console. If you know what I mean.
