A word of caution. Semantics can matter especially in technology and patent issues. "Copies" used in the headline has an entirely different connotation and meaning than adopts or adapts or "using a similar concept" present in the body of the article.

So you are saying they should have used the word "steals"?
That seems a bit harsh. : 3

I don't think the terminology really matters. They adopted a similar means of decoupling the memory frequency for processors launching a couple years after AMD showed off a similar feature, so one could say they might have "copied" the basic concept. Or maybe they were just developed in parallel, as a means of enabling higher memory frequencies when a fabric-like interconnect is used. I don't think anyone's really thinking that they copied the exact way things are being handled at a low level though.

I don't know why Intel decided to do this other than to win points with the people who have a hard on for numbers.

I don't know why Intel decided to do this other than to win points with the people fanboys who have a hard on for numbers Intel.

A slightly different wording version, while keeping the meaning mainly intact.
