Hi wanna_bmw, it's a knock against AMD rather than an endorsement

There are more than 200 components inside a PC. When those component vendors design and develop their components, all of those component vendors have to test their own components against the main processor and in a combinatorial fashion with the other industry components. And there's so many of them, so obviously, the component vendors' time is allocated according to market share. That's the definition of brand for a component: brand means you get the benefit of more QA time by the industry, which means that brand is quality here.

It's not really AMD's fault, but that's just how the high-tech industry works. And one can't blame Gartner for how the industry works either.

Total cost of a solution includes support hassles/costs.

Regards,
Amy J
