Intel has just lost a large portion of its market share to AMD.

AMD's surge in CPU market share in the latest Steam survey shows it's overtaking Intel.

According to Tech4Gamers , AMD is gradually closing the gap with Intel in the CPU market, and may even surpass its rival in the future.

Intel is gradually losing its position as the 'king' of the microprocessor industry.

Steam's December 2024 hardware and software survey delivered a major surprise, with AMD's CPU market share surging 3% to 38.73%, while Intel's dropped to 63.43%. This is an impressive leap, indicating a significant shift in user perception of AMD CPUs.

AMD's Ryzen CPU line, with its powerful performance, reasonable price, and superior number of cores/threads, has been a hit with users in recent years. Meanwhile, Intel seems to be stagnating and has yet to make any significant breakthroughs.

However, some experts believe that AMD still needs to improve its market share in the GPU sector to truly dethrone Intel. Currently, NVIDIA and AMD graphics cards are still sharing the market.

Can AMD maintain this growth momentum and dethrone Intel in the future? The answer depends on many factors, including product strategy, pricing, and the ability to meet market demands.
