Intel went from “Chipzilla” to getting clowned on real fast.
Ryzen punched AMD back into dominance, Intel CPUs literally started cooking themselves alive :p
Now Intel is back with a 24-core CPU for $299.
And honestly? This is the first time in years that Intel’s “comeback” doesn’t sound like pure corpospeak.
The wild part is that AMD’s success is exactly what forced Intel to stop sleeping.
Competition gave us cheaper CPUs, more cores, and better performance almost overnight.
Meanwhile NVIDIA is quietly entering the CPU market too with ARM chips that could bring RTX 5070-level graphics to thin laptops without dedicated GPUs.
The CPU wars are properly back now.

Intel is making a comeback with a 24-core CPU at $299, a move that feels more credible than past attempts. AMD's Ryzen dominance forced Intel to compete seriously, resulting in cheaper CPUs with more cores and better performance. NVIDIA is also entering the CPU market with ARM chips that could bring high-end graphics to thin laptops without dedicated GPUs, signaling a renewed era of CPU competition heading into 2026.
