AMD showed a strong 2nd quarter beating the analyst estimations. 


Computing and graphic segments was up to 51% y/y, due to Ryzen and the high demand of rx480/580

- 17:30 start of Q&A

In the call there have been some questions about crypto mining as a business driver and as a risk factor.

- AMD noticed that there was a high demand for its graphics. But they won't focus on the miner customer group, as there is no stable long term demand. 

- In the mid and near term, AMD will analyse the Crypto Mining potential
