The stocks from Intel went south for 5 years now. From 60$ to 29$. Not sure if the last downturn was necessary. Possibly a global recession. I am an AMD fanboy for 10 years now, but my next CPU will be from Intel "arrow lake". Clean design, very good performance per Watt. With (cisc x86 architecture) you also get the single core performance if needed. + NPU in every Core Ultra from now on.
