AMD Overtakes Intel in Processor Sales according to Puget Systems

I’m not surprised. AMD has had a fantastic run in these past 2 years. Let’s hope they continue to release amazing products.

Taken from Puget Systems … Well, time has now told – and AMD has done an amazing job of fighting their way back into the spotlight! It took a few generations for their new mainstream Ryzen processors to really mature, but by the 3000-series they had roughly equaled Intel’s contemporary Core chips and now with the 5000-series they have clearly taken the performance lead in most applications. Likewise, AMD’s high-end desktop (HEDT) Threadripper processors had some early issues with memory access and odd threading behavior – but with the 3rd gen CPUs in that family they now lead with the highest core count and best multi-core performance available in that market segment.

So what impact on our sales figures has AMD’s return to glory had? My previous post covered up to the end of 2015, so here is a chart showing AMD and Intel market share among systems we have sold from the start of 2016 up through today:
