But the same could be said for Intel.

Give examples that don’t involve shipping chips that need to be factory-overclocked and have much higher power consumption just to match AMD’s chips(also: xda-developers.com/intel-core-i9-13900k-vs-amd-ry…)

For example, the Cinebench R23 results mentioned earlier had the Core i9 system consuming 461W of power, a whopping 110W higher than the 351W of the 7950X.

or bribing OEMs just so that Intel doesn’t have to compete with AMD’s high-end CPUs by making buying an AMD PC either impossible or very obscure.

Only an Intel fanboy can be oblivious to this and pretend that Intel is still in the CPU race. It doesn’t even make sense when you add to that their anti-competitive practices. You shouldn’t need to bribe OEMs to offer as few AMD options as possible if you were confident in your own CPUs.

one specific use case that you have

Same was said a long time ago about NVIDIA consumer GPUs supporting CUDA and look at where we are right now.
