It sounds silly, but at least in terms of sales for this German company it seems that AMD already has a monopoly, given that Intel processor sales are almost the same.

As you can see in the sales report – or at least the top 15 – positions, AMDs are in all the top positions and their managers are the best sellers, reaching 88.84% of the total market share, which is a barrier to an accidental change that would mean "9 processors -10 sold from AMD. "
Even more remarkable is the fact that the commercial version of the AMD Ryzen 5 3600X has, a six-core processor worth over 200 euros and that has certainly been a selling point for AMD since its launch. This week, the processor's sales have represented 30,61% of the total number of processors, that is, about one in three processors sold this week has been the Ryzen 5 3600X.
If we could add together the sales of all Intel processor models, they would not represent a third of that processor's only purchases in other words, the Ryzen 5 3600X alone sold three times as many Intel systems combined.
In fact, both the AMD Ryzen 7 3700X and Ryzen 7 2700X also sold themselves more than all other Intel integrated processors. In total, this week 6,630 processors were purchased (in the table above of only the 15 best-sellers shown, but not all; to see them all you can contact the media, linked to the end) of which 5,890 have been sold for AMD (88.84%) and 740 being Intel (11.16%).
Is AMD close to being the only one in Europe?
Surprisingly, until recently, when we were talking about processor sales, it was Intel who took the cake, in fact, and has a complaint made by AMD about self-management practices. Now the tables seem to have changed, at least in Europe (which again, as usual, they do not represent global sales but help us get a sense of how things are going), and without the need for foul play (of course) AMD beat Intel innocently
It is known that in the past Intel has played dirty against AMD, made special deals with OEM PC vendors and prohibited them from using AMD to keep the contract running. By being known, AMD does not need to resort to any of these methods to reach the market share of nearly 90% in Europe, having achieved this in its own right, offering generations of better analysts and maintaining its standard policy. of numbers.
Of course, we can only applaud the strategy that AMD has had over the long term, which has apparently gone well. Now, we'll have to see how sales go globally though in Europe the numbers tell us that they are close to being alone.
