Intel is not in the article. Literally nothing about this post is about Intel other than an offhand remark about XMP.

The article is about AMD CPUs. I could not give a flying fuck about Intel.

I'm replying to the comment. In case you haven't noticed this is a public discussion, and when talking about AMD CPUs, it's common to bring up their only competitor, Intel CPUs.

If you didn't want to talk about intel CPUs, don't reply to a comment about intel CPUs. You inserted yourself into this discussion about Intel's practices then got angry that we were talking about Intel. Amazing.

It's a very reasonable thing to happen in a discussion. Do you know how those work? Talk about AMD leads to talk about Intel. It's not rocket science. You don't need to come in and start screaming that Intel is a forbidden topic.

Seems to me like you're just grasping for something after I dismissed your comment as nonsense.
