Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ: AMD) has been making small inroads into Intel 's (NASDAQ: INTC) central processing unit (CPU) dominance over the past year thanks to the success of its Ryzen processors. And now AMD's jabs seem to have turned into full-blown punches, as the latest market share numbers tell us.
Mercury Research estimates that AMD held 19.2% of the desktop CPU market at the end of the second quarter of 2020. That's the highest desktop processor market share that AMD has held in over six years. AMD, however, has made an even bigger dent in the laptop space thanks to its technological supremacy over Intel.
