Threadripper first gen was a disaster 
I agree but still their current product lineup was far better than any Intel competion. Cut them. Slacks Bro...

Ryzen lineup is like 3 yrs old don't compare them with Intel's line up. Even though their 3gen line up was good, their first and second gen weren't that good.
With just two generation they could beat the shit out of Intel. (they have my respect for that)
It takes time to refine this thing(processor)
Intel sitting on thier 14nm shit even in 2020.
They are struggling to cope up with thier so called 10nm chipset. They called of their chip manufacturing plans to shut down. They are ready to accept the fact that they can't manufacture chips lower than 14 or even 10nm (let's see how they go about it)
They optimized the shit out of 14nm hats of to them. But now they understand no matter how they optimize they can't be better than 7nm products.
