Its chronic underinvestment in engineering to "maximize shareholder value" for a decade before AMD launched Zen. Then Intel got 5 years behind on engineering, and have only managed to get 2 of those 3 caught up. The newest tile based architecture only just matches the performance of AMD's 3 year old AM4 architecture.
There's also a little tidbit that I think gets overlooked: the Arrow Lake CPUs are on a better TSMC node than AMD's Ryzen 9000 series. You wouldn't know it from any of the charts.
Which puts into perspective any Intel fanbois saying this is their Zen 1 moment. They're on a better node but still doing worse. There are no signs of life here, which was not the case for Zen 1.
