I will admit one thing the word intel is just pure brilliance same with their logo.
A big part of my reason for buying intel has to do with their name and logo aswell as their color scheme and I can tell you a lot of people feel the same way even if they won't admit it.
Same for Nvidia but I am a AMD GPU fanboi so thats that. I suffer the red color because I always loved Radeon i owned a Radeon 9700 Pro 128MB at one point. Max Payne was beautiful on it along with Need for Speed Underground and prince of persia sands of time.
Was so much better than the nasty Geforce 4 ti 4200 though xfx had an epic dog on the box a steel robot dog. Card was still trash compared to the whole Radeon 9000 series.

Red has been their color of choice for around 3 decades......
(At least on the video card side of things)
Personally, I think RED LED's are the coolest color choice
for gaming ATX cases.

^ I guess we are all different since I think Blue LEDs are by far the best. Atleast speaking from a feeling that blue represents cool and we want a case to be cool. Psychological point of view that is.
I think Nvidia has the best color out of all.

Intel = integrated electronics.
But yeah, Nvidia and peaceful don't exactly go together, especially with their coked-up CEO.

So what do the colors of Google's, Microsoft's and Ebay's logos mean?
I disagree. You can't beat the cleanliness of Intel's logo. You simply can't.

Of course you wouldn't, I'm not surprised at all

Intel is actually the abbreviation of the company's name
Integrated electronics.

Actually I think the red color is the smallest of AMD's marketing problems. Here's the list of problems and mishandlings I see:
- Dumping the ATI brand was downright asinine, replacing it with AMD was a double combo.
- They burned the FX brand with a subpar product.
- Their module/core approach burned them big time on the server market, especially when software companies started to charge twice the amount of money because AMD was marketing a processor with twice the amount of cores of Intel processors (albeit with inferior performance)
- They always mismanages expectations of their consumers (always over-promising and always under-deliverying)
- They don't communicate their vision of the future.
- Corporate communication is a tap dancing class.

This is easily my biggest problem with them right now. Investors' biggest issue is with uncertainty, not profit loss.
It is insanity to think anybody buying a processor at $200+ has more to do with the color of a logo than actual performance. People buy i5's and i7's because they scream.
I liked the Intel Pentium 4 logo the best...
And the product sucked and they knew it. The logo was not going to save the P4.

That's my thinking too. You associated really high performance/expectations with the logo+color. Over time, maybe that morphs into the opposite thinking, where you start blaming the color/logo of competitors for their bad performance? Like thinking a tail is wagging a dog if you stare at it long enough?
I could SWEAR intel came from intelligence.
But yes out of everyone, intel has the most beautiful logo its cleanliness is simply untouchable.
So is Qualcomm which by pure coincidence is the second richest chip giant after intel. And has a very similar Logo

I always wondered the same thing about Pepsi vs. Coke, and RBC vs. CIBC (banks), and Cold vs. Hot Water taps! Blue vs. Red seem to be pretty common.
I guess it's to differentiate themselves from the competition... maybe. Red can symbolize Love but is also associated with anger :hmm: :awe:
edit: And Liberals vs. Republicans! (not that I care about politics)
