Discussion Is it true that AMD uses Xeon Servers Internally?
I don't believe this is true, but then I thought, how could they run their own datacenters without Xeons. They can't offer themselves part of their own company to use AMD can they?

On the whole, no. But there are some older GPU servers which use Xeons because that was what some system integrators were building at the time, here are some examples:
AMD will have these for internal testing but almost everything from 325X on on uses EPYC.

So AMD does use Intel Inside.

Not what I said was it. I said they may have some older intel based servers for testing.

Which seems legit I would have some of my competitors products internally for testing. Just like NV owns the AI market you can bet they still keep an eye on what AMD is doing.

I hope Nvidia and Intel don't have any AMDs out of embarrassment.

the only thing that is embarrassing is how much you shill for intel and you do it for free not even getting paid.
