Amd vastly outpaces intel in cpus sales in November

Thanks to the incredible transparency of the data from Germany's largest e-commerce, Mindfactory.de, we have very interesting data on how the retail CPU market is behaving, both on the AMD and Intel side. These data correspond to the sales of the largest E-Tailer in Germany, but they could easily be transferred to the rest of the countries, seeing the panorama.

Intel sold less than half its rival AMD during November at Germany's largest retailer

As we can see the bar graphs, Intel sold less than half that of its rival AMD. In the bar you can see that Intel sold almost 8000 units, the same as the same month last year. This indicates that AMD's growth did not cannibalize Intel's sales, but simply grew on its own.

Unit sales

The best-selling CPU was the AMD Ryzen R5 2600, followed by the R7 2700X, R5 2600X, and finally the Intel Core i7 8700K took fourth place.

Money generated

When broken down by revenue generated rather than units sold, the situation improves marginally for Intel due to its significantly higher price structure. However, AMD still has the lion's share of revenue, with a record of over € 3m generated in November, the highest number ever recorded by Mindfactory.de, even when compared to Intel's best performance of the year. last in December.

Nearly half of all the CPUs sold in the E-Tailer last month were second-generation AMD Ryzen "Pinnacle Ridge" chips, making up 47% of the share. Second is Intel's Coffee Lake, at just under half, 22%. Although, again thanks to significantly higher prices, Intel's revenue share is significantly higher than its sold CPU share.

It seems that the Ryzen 5 2600 / 2600X and Ryzen 7 2700X are becoming very succulent processors for the performance and price they offer. On the other hand, Intel continues to have a great performance with its Intel Core chips in that segment, the problem is its price, and that would tip the balance towards AMD processors at this time.
