Don't you dare tease me with a good time!
Seriously tho, props to AMD for not changing the socket every other proc just for shits and giggles to make line go up. Fucking Intel.
I'd argue not switching sockets constantly actually is probably more profitable for AMD directly. When you switch the socket then upgrades also require customers to purchase new boards. If they can use the same board they have, then they have more money to spend on the CPU upgrade.
You'd think Intel would see it the same way, but no, they've done shit like literally just move a couple pins around to justify a new socket LMAO
