Focusing first on the server segment, AMD’s unit share has surged to 27.2%, while its revenue share has reached an impressive 39.4%.This marks a quarterly increase of 1.5 and 3.1 percentage points, respectively, alongside a year-over-year advance of 3.6 and 6.5 percentage points. The remarkable revenue growth can be attributed to the distinguished performance of AMD’s Zen 4-based Genoa and Bergamo processor families, as well as the ongoing rollout of the Turin “Zen 5″architecture, which promises enhanced efficiency and performance for data centers.

  • Server revenue share rose by 6.5 percentage points year-over-year and 3.1 percentage points quarter-over-quarter, achieving a record 39.4%.
  • Client revenue share improved by 10.2 percentage points year-over-year and 2.7 percentage points quarter-over-quarter, reaching 26.5%.
  • Desktop revenue share expanded by 15.2 percentage points year-over-year and 6.4 percentage points quarter-over-quarter.
  • Mobile revenue share witnessed a 7.3 percentage point year-over-year increase and a 0.5 percentage point quarter-over-quarter rise.
  • Overall revenue share climbed 9.0 percentage points year-over-year and 2.9 percentage points quarter-over-quarter to 31.6%.

On the desktop front, AMD has also demonstrated significant growth, achieving a unit share of 28% and a revenue share of 34.4%.This performance highlights a noteworthy year-over-year progression that even surpasses that of the EPYC server series. The success can be attributed to AMD’s popular gaming CPUs, including the Ryzen 7 7800X3D and Ryzen 7 9800X3D, which continue to dominate the market, along with strong contenders in the content creation sector through its 12 and 16-core processors.
