Jeremy has been writing about technology and PCs since the 90nm Netburst era (Google it!) and enjoys nothing more than a serious dissertation on the finer points of monitor input lag and overshoot followed by a forensic examination of advanced lithography. Or maybe he just likes machines that go “ping!” He also has a thing for tennis and cars.

This is getting a teensy bit repetitive now, but there's yet more bad news for Intel. Its arch rival AMD has clawed back a hefty 10% market share in the desktop x86 CPU segment over the last year. And that has us wondering, could those). AMD now owns 28.7% of the desktop CPU market, up from 19.2% a year ago, though its mobile CPU share is a fair bit lower at 22.3%.

This most recent quarter saw AMD snag an additional 5% desktop market share from Intel, the biggest quarterly jump in at least a decade. If this carries on much long, those doom-laden narratives around Intel will be much closer to reality. If that does indeed happen, then the whole"crashing CPU craters Intel market share" narrative will be a little harder to push. Still, however you slice it, the data has only been moving in one direction. AMD is taking market share from Intel with relentless consistency for the better part of a decade.proving pretty disappointing.
