German company Mindfactory publishes a history of processor sales, where it is seen how the AMD Ryzen far exceed the Intel Core.

Yesterday we published AMD's processor sales figures for August. We can see that in Spain, AMD has managed to outsell Intel for the first time since January. The situation in other countries is quite different, such as Germany. Mindfactory.de has published a chart showing processor sales in the country over the last five years.

The arrival of the Ryzen processors on the market has been a problem for Intel. But the biggest problem is in the 14nm, a lithograph that they cannot leave behind. The 10nm for desktop is not finished, although they have already arrived for laptops. AMD with its jump to Zen2 @ 7nm has improved a lot and poses a great threat.

Ryzen leads Germany in a resounding way

The chart clearly shows how AMD has dominated the market, especially this year . We see how the arrival of the first generation Ryzen processors had a strong impact, but it wasn't until this year that the tide turned. We also see how the arrival of the Ryzen 3000 series has boosted sales. It seems many people waited for their release to upgrade their systems.

Intel managed to weather the situation during the first half of 2018 with 8-core Coffee Lake processors. The arrival of the Ryzen 2000 caused a notable paradigm shift, dropping sales. Users before the rumors of the Ryzen 3000 waited for them to come out to be updated, as the graph indicates.

Mindfactory gives a curious fact and that is that they have billed 4 million euros with the new Ryzen 3000. This is together with what they billed in 2017 with Intel processors. Showing how the market has changed in two years.

Clearly Intel needs to make the jump to 10nm, which has been a problem. Bob Swan already commented that they went from ambitious looking for an increase in the density of transistors of 2.7 times. This assumes that Intel's 10nm is closer to TSMC's 5nm than 7nm. We'll see when the jump is made.
