It&#x27;s pretty impressive to see a CEO being able to answer a question about CPU vs GPU power envelope targets just of the cuff.<p>The interviewer asks why there are no CPUs targeting higher wattages, like how CPUs are less than 150W but there are 300W GPU. She says she&#x27;ll need to think about it but she&#x27;s pretty sure that the high parallelisation of GPUs makes them easier to scale up in terms of wattage.<p>Granted, that answer could be wrong (I know nothing about CPU engineering), but either way it&#x27;s a really well considered one to be thought up when &quot;put on the spot&quot; in an interview with a question you haven&#x27;t considered ahead of time. I&#x27;m sure that&#x27;s one of the things which separate good from great in CEOs: an understanding not only of the broad market decisions made by their company but even the details of low level architecture decisions.

Since I stopped gaming, I stopped following the high-end market. However, it is nice to see that AMD is trying to get in there again, some competition is good for the market in general.<p>If AMD can deliver, then Intel might have to respond with lowering prices on their products, which I believe might be a bit overpriced now due to there no being a real vialbe alternative.<p>Whatever happens, some competition is bound to be a good thing imo.
