This time is quite different. When AMD beat Intel technologically, Intel still had the lead in process technology while AMD had better chip designs. Now, time has changed. TSMC leads Intel in process technology while AMD contracts TSMC to make chips. AMD will have both the advantages in chip design and process technology. It is more likely that Intel will fall further behind TSMC, as TSMC has been investing heavily (more than even Samsung).
