AMD is now Japan's best-selling CPU brand over Intel. That is, according to the latest BCN retail sales data.

AMD Ryzen processors already outperform Intel Core in Japan

In even better news for AMD, this sales figure only represents sales through June 24. Which means the gap will widen even further once third generation Ryzen processors come out. Also, recent price cuts on second-generation Ryzen CPUs will certainly help to widen the gap.

As of October 2018, Intel sales represented 72.1% of the CPU market in Japan. Currently, this figure has dropped significantly to 49.5%, while AMD has surpassed it, reaching 50.5% compared to 27.9% in October.

What is causing the change in market share?

Obviously, AMD has recovered quite well from what it was prior to the launch of Ryzen. Playing catch-up with Intel's performance seemed almost impossible until Lisa Su took over as CEO.

The first and second generation Ryzen can stand up to any Intel processor without problems and also the prices accompany. On the eve of the third generation launch, things couldn't be better for AMD right now. In addition, the third generation Ryzen will also be compatible with PCIe 4.0 technology and will use a 7nm node, outperforming current Intel Core with cutting-edge technologies.

The third generation Ryzen will be released this July 7. We will keep you informed.
