Interestingly however, the company missed analyst estimates on revenue, where they were expected to bring in $10.25 billion. Intel has been especially proud of their gross margin for the quarter, which was an unexpectedly high 59% (for the sake of comparison, AMD Is 51%).

Q2 as you may recall was a bust for NVIDIA, with their first loss in quite some time due to a combination of problems regarding product prices and the costs of replacing defective mobile products. Not a great deal has changed in a single quarter, and Wall Street’s Q3 projections were rather pessimistic as a result. With ...
