Comment on Chips aren’t improving like they used to, and it’s killing game console price cuts

If not consoles, AMD would have likely gone bankrupt or become a marginal player.
Considering what’s happening with Intel in the past ~7 year, it would have been game over for x86 PC gaming on the CPU front.
