What each one does

AMD. AMD designs processors (CPUs) and graphics cards (GPUs) for computers, consoles and data centers. It's the main rival to Intel in CPUs and to NVIDIA in AI chips.

Intel. Intel makes microprocessors and was historically the leader in chips for computers and servers. Unlike most, it both designs AND manufactures its chips, and it's trying to regain the technology lead it lost to TSMC and AMD.
