AMD has informed us that during the fourth quarter of 2017 it managed to increase its market share in all the large markets in which the company is present, this includes CPUs, GPUs and servers.

Ryzen and Vega's success drives AMD's growth

A piece of news that should not surprise us since last year AMD announced its strongest product portfolio in more than a decade. Releases include more than 50 new products combining Ryzen architecture-based processors and Polaris and Vega-based graphics cards. Thanks to this AMD has made progress in the markets in which it is present.

We recommend reading our post about AMD Ryzen 5 Vs Intel Core i5. What is the best option?

According to a report by Mercury Research, AMD's market share in the desktop processor sector has increased by 2.1 points from the previous year, even more remarkable is the fact that they have doubled their share in servers, a territory that was almost entirely dominated by Intel and in which EPYC processors have been shown as a formidable solution.

Finally we do not forget its Radeon graphics cards, the launch of Vega has returned AMD to the fight for the high-end with a gain of 6.3 points in just one quarter and 4.1 points of profit over the previous year.

It is expected that this year 2018 will also be excellent for an AMD that is about to put its second-generation Ryzen processors on sale, in terms of graphics cards, there is still no launch scheduled for this year.
