This is the market for people building their own PC or upgrading a PC and buying their parts from Amazon which is a tiny portion of the total PC shipments but is an important leading indicator for the rest of the market. Intel still beats AMD in total CPUs shipped.
And this is the amazing fact that needs more study. AMD's been the easy choice for years. Why so slow to adopt?
* Consumer/Partner Inertia?
* Ability to produce to meet demand?
* Support?
* Compatibility?
Once had an IT person tell me they couldn't move to ryzen laptops because the way the system presented its network interfaces was incompatible with their management software. My charitable interpretation is that there's enough programs like this that prevent AMD adoption, while simultaneously AMD never seems to be in a rush to fix firmware or software problems.
