i dont think they will as they get many RMAs 
They can always reduce the RMA to a month and sell it as a ASIC...

Bitcoin is not big enough for either company to get involved. It was discussed many times even when bitcoin was at $1000. I think back then it was 2-3% of people use bitcoin which is nothing for these companies.
Well, it should be big enough right now. They can even accept bitcoin as a payment....

Well, if amd were to go into this, Im sure they would come out with the best ASIC...
Topic is too old, but these companys can be interested in BTC i think.
AMD didn't even give a shit when their GPUs were all-the-rage during the GPU mining days.
Tom Stellard of AMD has made more improvements to the AMD R600 LLVM back-end that benefit the performance of Bitcoin miningAn 18 month old article that was written when GPU BTC mining was about to be made irrelevant by ASIC hardware. They made improvements to already existing GPUs, not develop an entirely new technology. So I don't see how the article that you linked is pertinent for this topic.
im for AMD

I think it'd be inevitable if Bitcoin crosses that 100 Billion Market Cap plateau.
It would mean Bitcoin mining as a whole, is a viable business entity, besides the tech, cryptocurrency, and protocol aspect.
Who wouldn't want a piece of a pie, if Bitcoin became mainstream in eyes of major tech companies.

amd and intel might be already secretly mining and selling bitcoin as we speak.
AMD and Intel have much more important things to do with their time and resources. AMD didn't even give a shit when their GPUs were all-the-rage during the GPU mining days.
But they are among the most establised, biggest shovel makers... They've only made dirt rakes and trowels, though?
I'll continue with that analogy, lol. They make all kinds of tools for big mining operations; pickaxes, backhoes, piledrivers, excavators, etc. But I imagine that BTC mining is such a rare yet valueless mineral (by their standards) that there isn't enough money in developing, marketing and selling tools for it. They would rather sell tools at high volume with high margins. And bitcoin mining just isn't lucrative enough.
It's just by chance that their CPUs and GPUs were once valuable mining tools. But they probably barely noticed any improvement to their bottom line from the sale of those tools.

This seems inevitable if betting on widespread adoption and stabilizing (astronomical) difficulty. Thoughts?
