Video from Intel CEO Bob Swan to COMPUTEX: did Intel give up on benchmarks?

Video from Intel CEO Bob Swan to COMPUTEX: did Intel give up on benchmarks?

In what is a rather long, and at some points baffling to hear video posted by CEO Bob Swan in  Computex video, Intel pretty much gave up on benchmarks, as people should focus more on the 'platform itself'. He also mentions new product releases like Tiger Lake.

Intel CEO Bob Swan has confirmed that the next generation of laptops based on Tiger Lake processors is coming in a few months. He mentions this in a YouTube from Computex 2020, he talks about the virtues of the Taiwanese fair and its importance on the global technology scene, as well as what Intel has presented this year.

"Later this year," says Swan, "we will introduce Tiger Lake and sure our position as the undisputed leader in mobile computing and PC innovation."

The most interesting thing about all this is the statement he makes in the same video, saying that with the current pandemic, "we have to stop worrying about things as simple as the benchmarks of processors":

"We should see this moment as an opportunity to shift our approach from the benchmark industry to the benefits and impacts of the technology we create. The pandemic has highlighted the need for technology to be built on purpose so that it can meet these changing needs of businesses and consumers. And this requires a customer-obsessed mindset to stay close, anticipate those needs, and develop solutions. In this mindset, the goal is to make sure that we are optimizing for a stronger impact that supports and accelerates the positive benefits for companies and society around the world. ”

This desire to move away from synthetic benchmarks has been a common thread since Computex and E3 last year, to be continued?. Here is that video from Intel CEO Bob Swan, thanks to JamesSneed, Master Guru from our forums for the news:

What a joker. I'm surprised he can speak words like that despite knowing what kind of company he's working for.

All of this has got absolutely nothing to do with how Intel operates. I don't know what company he's talking about, but it, for sure, isn't Intel.

It's basically empty PR words for "this is another year where our CPUs will suck".

Isnt that what AMD management said about benches when Phenom was released? The shoe is now on the other foot :D
Intel going through the same motions as AMD when they were at a disadvantage. Including jacking up the ghz and power draw to stay competitive.

So we should focus on intels platform thats more expensive and offers no extras over amd aside from a little extra gaming performance if u like/need high refresh rate only.
