[CM] AMD growing again, thanks to Ryzen processors
From the «that chip needs a management engine» department:
Title: AMD reportedly takes 10% market share from Intel Author: Thom Holwerda Date: Sun, 02 Jul 2017 06:10:33 -0400 Link: http://osnews.com/story/29898/AMD_re...are_from_Intel AMD has reportedly gained 10.4 percentage points of CPU market share in the second quarter of 2017. This makes it the largest x86 CPU market share gain in the history of the Sunnyvale, California based chip maker against its much larger rival Intel. The data is courtesy of PassMark's quarterly market share report, which is based on the thousands of submissions that go through the database in any given quarter. It's important to note that because PassMark's market share data is based on benchmark submissions it counts actual systems in use, rather than systems sold. It also does not include consoles or any computer systems running operating systems other than Windows. With AMD's Ryzen processors being the new hotness right now, I'd indeed expect benchmarking sites to get more Ryzen submissions, even if it's not a 10% market share swing in favour of AMD. That being said, it's clear that AMD is having an impact right now, and as consumers, we should welcome this. I do dislike the fact that the chart only has two lines to show. We'd be better off with more than just two x86 chip makers, but alas. -- Posting to comp.misc, sci.misc, and misc.news.internet.discuss |

Poor value for money - I have not purchased any more AMD's since. Vince |
