Intel Saw A 23% Client CPU Market Share Increase In Q2 2023 While AMD Fell -5.3%

wccftech.com:

The Client CPU market seems to have broken its downward trend with Intel leading the charge over AMD, reports Jon Peddie Research.

The client CPU market has been on a decline for a long time now. Ever since the pandemic and the global economic situation, both Intel and AMD have seen major losses but that changed within this quarter as the market has shown its first signs of recovery.

In the latest statistics posted by Jon Peddie Research, the PC Client CPU units reached 53.6 Million units in Q2 2023 which was a 17% increase from the previous quarter while iGPU shipments saw a boost of 14% (49 million units). The notebook market showed total dominance with a 72% share & the desktop CPU shipments saw a 28% hold which was a slight decline from the previous quarter.

Compared to the previous year, the numbers may still look a bit bleak with a -23% decline for all client-based chips. The desktop CPU shipments decreased by -25% while notebook shipments saw a decline of -22%. When it comes to AMD and Intel, the red team saw a market share decline of -5.3 percent while Intel's share grew by 23%. This is mainly due to Intel focusing more on the entry-tier and mainstream chips whereas AMD CPUs were entirely focused on high-end audiences.

Jon Peddie, president of JPR, noted, “Q2’s increase in client CPU shipments from last quarter is positive and welcomed news in what has been depressing results for that quarter as well as for the last two years. Integrated graphics also increased from last quarter, which is not too remarkable given most CPUs have built-in GPUs. The forecast for next quarter is a cautionary positive. AMD and Intel are guiding upward, albeit modestly.
