If we believe the quarterly report of AMD , the appearance of Ryzen 7 processors on the market allowed not only to increase the company's revenue, but also to increase profitability, although it failed to break even. The release of Ryzen spurred competition, although Intel is trying to deny it with all its might. The main competitor of AMD at its quarterly reporting conference twice admitted that it accelerates the announcement of new products, and the capital costs will be significantly increased (only a fifth of them will go into expanding memory production).
It is believed that AMD's intention to introduce Ryzen processors with 12 and 16 cores, as well as a X399, forced Intel to postpone the announcement of the X299 platform (Basin Falls), and also the Skylake-X and Kaby Lake-X processors, for an earlier period . Is it now time for AMD to be afraid? Close to the content of the question, one of the analysts asked the head of AMD, Lisa Su, at the quarterly reporting conference, and the answer was predictably unflappable.
The head of AMD is quite happy with the positioning of Ryzen processors in terms of price-performance ratio. However, Lisa Su does not deny that AMD intends to present some other products before the end of the year that will allow it to maintain its positions, at least. In general, the company plans to talk more about processor plans at an event for analysts to be held this month, so it's not ready yet to disclose all the cards ahead of schedule.
