AMD Takes Good CPU Share from Intel in Q2 2017

Published by

According to a report from PassMark, AMD increased its market share: the company’s percentage last quarter was 18%, but now it is sitting at 24%. This is supposedly AMD’s largest single quarter share gain in history: Ryzen may be the company’s most successful product launch ever



This graph showing AMD and Intel market share is made up of thousands of PerformanceTest benchmark results and is updated daily. In Q1 2017 Intel’s market share according to the Passmark graph shows 81.90% total while AMD has 18%. A snapshot taken on July 2 however, shows the Intel share drop to 76% while AMD rose to 24%.

Small note, passmarks says very little about sales really and I feel it an indicator, nothing more. And the end users that actually us it is just small. 

AMD vs Intel Market Share

  • his graph counts the baselines submitted to us during these time period and therefore is representative of CPUs in use rather than CPUs purchased.
  • The Quarters are by the calendar year rather than financial. (i.e. Q1 starts January 1st)
  • Baselines can be submitted from anywhere therefore these are global statistics.
  • We do receive a small number of submissions of CPU types other than AMD and Intel however the percentage is so small as to make it not worth graphing. This combined with rounding off the percentages to 2 decimal places will account for each quarter not always adding up to exactly 100%.
  • This chart only includes x86 processors and does not include other chip architectures these manufacturers may sell.
  • This chart only includes CPUs installed into PCs and does not include game consoles.
  • As the PerformanceTest software only runs on Windows OS and counts on user submitting their benchmarks. This chart may be non reflective of non Windows user base.
