AMD Outsells Intel 2:1 on European Retailer Mindfactory.de
European PC enthusiasts continue to see value in choosing AMD Ryzen processors over Intel Core, as the latest public data by German retailer Mindfactory.de, which ships across the EU, shows AMD processors outselling Intel 2:1. Although earlier Intel would have the upperhand in revenue despite lower volumes, this time around, AMD shored up revenues on the backs of high-margin products such as the Ryzen 7 2700X and the HEDT Ryzen Threadripper series.
The 6-core/12-thread Ryzen 5 2600 is the most popular processor offering high value under the 200€-mark. It is followed by the 8-core/16-thread Ryzen 7 2700X. Buyers prefer the 2700X to the cheaper 2700 non-X. The Ryzen 5 2600X is another strong seller. Over in the Intel camp, the Core i9-9900K and Core i7-9700K are strong sellers, followed by the i5-9600K and the newly released i5-9400F. Pricing graphs show Intel processor pricing steadily rise over 2018, while AMD chips remained largely flat. These numbers are not indicative of the overall market, since Mindfactory caters to DIY PC gamers and enthusiasts only.

And only themselves.
My point was something along the lines of "neither of these are a complete picture..." but ah, who am I kidding. Enjoy your pick and choose "surveys."
SHS if a undefined % that is unknown (unpublished). That unknown % can be anything.
MF.de is sales figures. From the source they been dumping those figures for awhile.
You wont get a complete picture if they are only reporting their own sales figures. Not like BestBuy will report Microcentre sales figures. Your getting a snap shot into their CPU sales figure is all.
It's hard to get a good example of "ripping off". It would have to be due to some external conditions. I.e. you live in a closed economy and a particular product costs much more than it does on the other side of the border.Why do you hope (as a consumer) that AMD passes Intel? I mean: how would you benefit *as a consumer*?

Intel cuts off DiY desktop processor supply chain
When was the last time you saw this on Amazon? Now please continue telling us how SHS is more relevant than actual, hard sales numbers! Not pointed at one individual but everyone who can't see the trend. The only exception could be Asia where AMD doesn't have as strong a channel presence as Europe or NA.
You and your life partner read the same magazine. How many magazines where bought? 1. How many people read it? 2.
It's a different number. It has it's uses.
Also, while the data gathered by Steam differs from market share, the direction isn't obvious. And all arguments given here are just AMD-fanboy wishfull thinking. Like: because internet cafes use Nvidia. We don't know what.
The same people that criticize Steam's data applaud sales statistics from Microcenter or figures provided by Passmark, where in both cases it's obvious that they overestimate AMD share (because of the unrepresentative user group).
It's really obvious what's going on here.
Figures are quite stable, so at least that doesn't suggest any problem.
Dispersion (error) would be nice (statistically), but Steam Survey isn't meant to be scientific. It's a tidbit.
Now this won't get AMD to pre Conroe levels of dominance & for that AMD will have to execute nearly flawlessly for another 5 years. Anyone shrugging the message from this news needs to take a good hard look at what they're saying. There is no ambiguity here, if you want "better" data how about shoot an email to Ingram Micro?
They wanted to show hardware popularity, not quantity.
Read the 4th line of news post.
e.g. - you.
is "works for intel/nvidia" the only way you can respond to people ?
Or maybe you know and it was done on purpose.
This is the current top 10.
Leading: the most expensive, most power hungry and the most ridiculously packed consumer CPU we have today.

This market is dominated by Intel, because current AMD lineup isn't seen as attractive at the moment. Slight price difference isn't enough.
Currently i7-8700 is the CPU that Intel markets for high-end business desktops (just under the ECC-enabled segment). AMD is competing with Ryzen 7 2700, which is a bit slower in real life.
And AMD task is not to match Intel anyway. They have to pull ahead by a significant margin. Otherwise, why would anyone leave the brand they used for years?
If you mean the high-end workstation (ECC, pro GPUs and certification), then it's not for Ryzen but EPYC/Threadripper.
There are people who state crazy stuff defending Intel, and make you worry about their mental health.
Working for Intel would be the better option.
