The battle between Intel vs. AMD may have reached its height when Intel held hostage top YouTube tech personality to give a review for Intel Core i9. However, the good thing about the video release is that it is just part of a silly introduction, which the YouTuber creatively added to his follow-up video.

However, despite the comic introduction, facts are hard to ignore with the upcoming Intel processors, specifically the Intel Core i9 series. It can be remembered that this would be the second video of Linus Tech Tip delving with the upcoming Intel CPU.

In the previous week, for those who were not able to see, the upcoming Intel chips were highly criticized by Linus Sebastian on his YouTube Channel. YouTube's most famous PC nerd did not buy what Intel has recently offered to the market.

In the video presentation, Sebastian shared his thoughts about the new move of Intel with its Core i9 and Core X-series introduction. As for the YouTuber's view, such move is "half-desperate attempt to appease enthusiasts and gamers."

However, Intel was quick to take its move by talking to Sebastian about their marketing strategy and where Intel stands concerning this latest product. As to the words of Sebastian, he and Intel are still working together, the "big boys" at Intel managed to handle the positive criticism.

However, despite what Intel has been throwing to enthusiasts and experts alike, it still cannot be disregarded that AMD has the upper hand with their AMD Threadripper. Intel is faced with having been shot first, for although Intel Core i9 may offer various updates and cool features, AMD still has the time to tweak their Threadripper lineup.

The YouTuber believed that with Intel Core i9 showing off ahead AMD, it would be easier for the competitor to make significant changes to thwart the success of the upcoming Intel CPU. In particular, the price would be the easiest avenue through which changes may begin.

Watch here below the newly released video of Linus Tech Tips with an honest review of the Intel chips:
