But Intel’s new and next-gen offerings loom large.
AMD’s latest earnings call has revealed something that gamers might have already guessed: its Ryzen desktop and mobile CPUs have been selling like hotcakes.
According to AMD CEO Dr. Lisa Su: „In client, our PC processor business performed exceptionally well.
„Revenue increased 34% year over year to a record $3.1 billion, driven by increased demand for multiple generations of Ryzen desktop and mobile CPUs“, said the AMD chief. „Ryzen CPUs topped the best-seller lists at major global retailers and e-tailers throughout the holiday period.“
That certainly tracks with our estimation of AMD’s current desktop CPU lineup. Our best gaming CPU guide is a complete AMD chipfest at the moment, with all six of our categories taken up with its current and previous-gen offerings.
And while Intel still has existing arrangements with many system builders to keep itself in the game, its Arrow Lake desktop chips have failed to impress us overall.
