We are absolutely looking at buying large quantities of (Ry)zen, if the numbers work out. We're most concerned about multi-core / NUMA penalty compared to Intel.

I assume we also get some sort of volume discount with Intel that may not be reflected in consumer pricing. But maybe we would get the same with AMD.

Also, CPUs are a tiny tiny portion of our costs of goods sold. So in the end, it doesn't matter too much how expensive Intel is relative to AMD. That said, we would prefer to see competition for the long run.
