Can't wait to see the effects when Bulldozer desktop and Server are out.

It is nice to see AMD gaining some marketshare.

Good work to AMD for gaining market share even though Bulldozer hasn't hit the market yet! Clearly showing Brazos and the low price of the Athlon II and Phenom II lines are a hit. Since Llano was released so recently, I doubt that has really had an impact on those numbers yet either. I would imagine that the mobile and low-end/mainstream desktop markets swing even more towards AMD in the next quarter.

Yay!

I just switched to intel/nvidia, but I love AMD and I'm glad to see their marketshare go up

 

[Mungojerrie]

I jumped ships as well on processors, but I am blowing $800+ on AMD graphics when the new chips come out.

I'm still waiting for the new Cryix processors

LMAO.

If you want a processor that will spontaneously blow up, try buying a chinese counterfeit.

Wonder how much of that was due to Intel stopping Sandy Bridge sales - that would have hit Q2, right?

 

[Harry1969]

Are Sandy Bridge sales that significant? I always thought budget chips like the pentium and core2 made up the majority of sales.

 

[drescherjm]

The i3s are also budget chips.

 

[rendereason]

there are sandy bridge budget chips.

 

[rendereason]

just look at the amount of new computers that use the i3 and i5.
