I remember back in time when people used to tell me...
>buy intel for work
>buy AMD for gayms
When was this real?, What year?.

What other things have changed over the years on tech companies competition?.

Like in 2006, i torrented HL2 and had to install Steam, hated it and thought it awkward and unnecesary as fuck.

It's still mostly true. If you play games you want to put more money into your graphics card, and less into CPU. AMD has good price/ performance ratio in the mid-low CPU range.

If you're going to be doing work you might as well fork out for a good intel CPU. though this depends on what you do, 95% of tasks can be done on a 15 year old intel core duo. even photoshop uses graphics cards now.

I was there, Intel was one of the event sponsors and when they started to make an announcement they were booed off stage

Yes it could be true, specially now that devs are coding for multithreading.
