AMD: History, processor models and graphics cards
Advanced Micro Devices or also known as AMD is a semiconductor company
based in Sunnyvale, California, that is engaged in the development of processors,
chipsets for motherboards, auxiliary integrated circuits, embedded processors,
graphics cards and related technology products for the consumer market. AMD is
the world's second-largest manufacturer of x86 processors, and the second-largest
manufacturer of graphics cards for the professional and home industries. AMD was
founded on May 1, 1969 by a group of Fairchild Semiconductor executives,
including Jerry Sanders III, Edwin Turney, John Carey, Steven Simonsen, Jack
Gifford, Frank Botte, Jim Giles, and Larry Stenger. AMD debuted in the market of
logical integrated circuits, to make the leap to RAM in 1975. AMD has always stood
out for being the eternal rival of Intel, currently they are the only two companies
that sell x86 processors, although VIA is starting to put the paw back into this
architecture. Its first processor was the AMD 9080, a copy of the Intel 8080 that
was created using reverse engineering techniques. After it came other models
such as the Am2901, Am29116, Am293xx used in various designs of
microcomputers. The next leap was
represented by the AMD 29k, which
sought to stand out for the inclusion of
graphics, video and EPROM memory
units, and the AMD7910 and AMD7911,
which were the first to support several
standards both Bell and CCITT in 1200
baud half duplex or 300/300 full duplex.
After that, AMD decides to focus solely on
Intel-compatible microprocessors, making the company a direct competitor. AMD
K5 was the first processor created by the company from its foundations and
without any Intel code inside. After this came the AMD K6 and the AMD K7, the
first of the Athlon brand that reached the market on June 23, 1999. This AMD K7
needed new motherboards, because until
now it was possible to mount both Intel and
AMD processors on the same motherboard.
With this, Socket A is born, the first exclusive
for AMD processors. On October 9, 2001, the
Athlon XP arrived and the Athlon XP on
February 10, 2003.
Intel: History, Processors, Graphics Cards
Intel was founded in Mountain View, California, on July 18, 1968, by Robert Noyce
and Gordon Moore, the pioneers of semiconductors, and widely associated with
the executive leadership and vision of Andrew Grove. The word Intel represents an
acronym for the words integration and electronics. Its co-founder Robert Noyce
was a key inventor of the integrated circuit. He was also one of the first developers
of SRAM and DRAM memory chips, which accounted for most of his business until
1981 although he created the world's first commercial microprocessor in 1971, it
was not until the success of the PC that this became his core business. During the
1990s, Intel invested heavily in new microprocessor designs fostering the rapid
growth of the computer industry. It became the dominant supplier of PC
microprocessors and was known for its aggressive and anti-competitive tactics in
defense of its market position, particularly against AMD (Advanced Micro Devices).
Intel 4004 was the first microprocessor created by
Federico Faggin, and the first in the world, which
became commercially available in 1971. Despite this
great novelty, the business was dominated in the
early 1980s by dynamic random access memory
chips. However, increased competition from
Japanese semiconductor manufacturers had reduced the
profitability of this market in 1983, coupled with the growing success of the IBM
personal computer, based on an Intel microprocessor. The 8080 and 8086 series
microprocessors were produced by several companies, especially AMD, with which
Intel had a technology exchange contract. Grove made the decision not to license
the 386 designs to other manufacturers, by doing so
he breached his contract with AMD, which sued and
received millions of dollars in damages, but was
unable to manufacture new CPU designs. In return,
AMD began developing and manufacturing its own
x86 designs to compete with Intel. Intel's design
team in Santa Clara embarked in 1993 on a
successor to the x86 architecture, codenamed "P7." The resulting version of the
64-bit IA-64 architecture was the Itanium, which was finally introduced in June
2001. Itanium's performance running legacy x86 code did not meet expectations,
and it could not compete frequently with x86-64, the extension of the 32-bit x86
architecture created by AMD in parallel. On the other hand, the Hillsboro team
designed the Willamette processors, codenamed P68, which were marketed as the
Pentium 4.
AMD VS INTEL COMPARISON TABLE
Microprocessor Advantage Disadvantages
Intel They are better at work Higher cost
Has a lot of cache When you are going to
Has long use life make a pc, game is better
Most PCs feature an Intel CPU. AMD
They don't get too hot They are expensive
Consumes less energy
How to use Intel
Very good yields are very good When you use a pc for daily
performance (minus the Celerons) use, such as internet,
emails or videos
When you use the PC for
work, whether school or
office
When you are a designer,
programmer, or other jobs
that need the processor not
to be so high temperature,
or need 100% performance
How not to use Intel:
When you don't have
money for an Intel.
When you're going to make
a gaming PC
AMD Improves performance in relation Gets very hot
to applications. Shorter lifetime
It has the fastest graphics Has low memory for cache
processors. Uses a lot of energy
Cheaper processors.
The best for gamers. How to use AMD
It has better graphics When you are going to
management make a gaming pc if you
are one of the people who
does not reach a corei7, a
phenom ii is more than
enough.
How not to use AMD
If it is enough for an Intel if
you buy a laptop, it is more
recommended Intel, by
temperature seasonings
Conclusion
This is my conclusion on the subject of AMD vs Intel to everything I was reading for
graphics and video games preferably AMD because it is much better not to heat up
too much is low cost, I think it is more accessible for the pocket if you do not have
much budget this is my point of view of AMD.
Meanwhile about Intel good Intel as I was researching is not very accessible for
gamers because the cost is very high and usually gets too hot and that would be a
problem for a gamer boy. Instead, a laptop that is everyday works best intel. When
for example it is for the office or work it is perfect to use Intel and it also works for a
designer or a programmer because it does not heat up very fast and the processor
performs 100%.
