Typical motherboard with an AMD chip
Typical motherboard with an AMD chip

Founded by a posse of Italian gigolos, they quickly discovered that there wasn't much of a market for a he-brothel named African Made Devices. So in 1978, AMD decided to switch to whoring out microchips. They first gained notoriety from selling x86-cloned CPUs. Intel whined about it and sent AMD to court. The judge ruled that since AMD was reverse-engineering their chips, they could continue selling them. Intel then put a vendetta on AMD's head. The war was on. Only, instead of spreading FUD like any decent company would, Intel began breaking the legs of OEMs who offered computers with AMD chips.

So what did AMD do? They cried like little sissies and accused Intel of being a monopoly. The litigation war is on.

AMD also creates awesome 64 bit chips that r0x0rs the socks off everything else on the market. At least, that's what everyone on Slashdot says. 64 bit chips have revolutionized modern computing and now to see a modern program, let alone an entire operating system, running with x86 instructions is unheard of.

AMD compared to Intel

It is well known among the hackish elite that Intel is an evil company that makes terrible chips. Indeed, it does not take computer literacy to see this; the brand name of Intel's chips is Pentagram. Intel even rates its chips on clock speed, a measure of how many goat heads it can generate each cycle.

Luckily, AMD has come to the rescue with a far less evil chip, complete with a new PR (porn regeneration) rating system which measures the number of nude Catherine Bell pics it can draw on the screen per second. The decreased evil quotient makes it a good choice for applications such as missile defense shields and SkyNet.

AMD Processors performance compared to Intel chips

A little known fact about Intel's corporate strategy is that each new generation of microprocessor is merely the previous generation with flame decals glued to it in order to create subtle performance gains. The fact is that Intel hasn't created a new architecture since the 586. AMD's usage of Engineers to create new architectures is creating a large advantage. AMDs chips overheat more than others--that means they're better--and one day AMD hopes not to need decals to show flames.

The Future

African Made Devices plans to make a cpu/gpu hybrid which is why their new slogan is THE FUTURE IS FUSION. Intel at first lol'd at the idea but then eventually started developing their own version of it and we have yet to see what comes of it.

AMD versus Core 2 Doo Doo

OH SHI-
OH SHI-

Intel released a range of core 2 doo doo chips which raped most AMD processors out. AMD tried to combat this and Intel's quads with their Phenom line of quads which sucked major dick. Finally after huge market losses and being called retarded, AMD finally came out with their Phenom 2 line of CPU's. Now AMD has something to combat core 2 doo doo's while Intel made another processor which they call the i7. At first everyone was gay for it but then after a while they realized that i7+GAEYMAN = facepalm.jpg so AMD's Phenom 2's got a slight advantage.

How to troll AMD/Intelfags

Trolling AMDfags: Say AMD is for poorfags, post phenom 1 benchmarks compared to intel quads, mention company financial losses, compare phenom 2 to i7

Trolling intelfags: Say i7 is dead end socket, post benchmarks of e8400 to i7, mention the fact that Nvidia said i7 is useless.
