What do you disagree with? AMD literally made a worse product due to maintaining cooler compatibility than if they didn't. The efficiency was also higher with direct die on top of the temperature going down.I disagree with you still, surprise.
And I have to ask are you going to work on Hedt or just game?!.
With either supplier your future looks bleak I'd say, newer chip's are not going to be cooler.
And when Intel kicks in with chiplets and stacks your ideology is going to get wrecked IMHO.
I do both gaming and work, but AMD priced HEDT way too high for my needs (PCIe/memory bandwidth, I don't need cores) so I'm keeping an open mind that Intel may decide to put out some cheaper lower core count models.
I too doubt it's going to get better, but I don't need something immediately so Intel having high load power consumption and AMD making their own efficiency worse (and having pretty high power consumption) makes it easy to wait and see.
