    Re: Intel's Performance Per Watt to be bad for AMD? (Score: 1)

    AMD isn't gaining marketshare day by day.

    Check out this article. In the second quarter of this year AMD lost 0.7 percent of the x86 desktop processor market. But this was mainly caused by Microsoft who ordered quite a lot of Pentium 3s for its Xbox consoles. If this hadn't happened AMD's and Intel's marketshare would have remained roughly the same as the first quarter.

    So in Q2 2005 AMD held 16.9 percent of the market and Intel 86.1 percent. The remaining 1.5 percent goes to VIA and Transmeta.

    The only segment where AMD posted a huge gain was the server market.

    If Intel's next-generation will be as good as they promise then I guess AMD's share will decline. Huge OEMs like Dell haven't really adopted AMD yet and if Intel's offerings keep improving on par (or beyond) AMD's offerings then they don't really need to adopt them.
