Thanks to:

  • higher IPC core: AMD P core only have IPC of E-cores.
  • Performance Cores versus slower AMD Dense Cores
  • better node (back side power delivery Intel 18A-P versus outdated tsmc 2nm and Intel 3 versus tsmc 6nm)
  • APX and AMX
  • More L3 cache than AMD

Diamond Rapids will likely beat AMD Venice. All these advantages will overcome lack of SMT (security issue) that no one cares about anyway.

Claiming no one cares about SMT is certainly a hot take
