Puget Systems is a company that specializes in workstations and servers that are popular with the scientific community. The company just revealed that a majority of its systems shipped are now powered by AMD processors. These include Ryzen desktop or Ryzen Threadripper HEDT/workstation processors. "AMD has made enormous improvements to its CPU line year over year. In fact, more than 50% of our recommended systems are powered by AMD Ryzen
or Threadripper CPUs!," the company tweeted. The Ryzen Threadripper lineup has dominated the HEDT and workstation scene as all models support ECC memory, and the chips come in core counts of up to 64.

A lot of people said that about ARM CPU's, yet here we are with ARM CPU's being the most common type of CPU on the planet.

Eventually they will, it takes time, Intel didnt get where they are overnight, then again Intel didnt have competent competition for over a decade. The landscape is changing, and AMD has a riding lawnmower while Intel dropped the ball. Or do you need to be reminded of the 10mm disaster?

dragontamer5788IIRC, some random tools like "rr" (rr-project.org/) only work on Intel. If you have a continuous integration system (like... a programmer server: compiles, tests, etc. etc.) that uses rr inside, Intel HEDT is what you want.

I admit its an obscure case but... random things still happen like that.
If you move one of the "r" in front of the first "o" in "tools", you will get quite a legit explanation of why they "only work on Intel".

AMD's biggest problem atm is Fab capacity.

It is likely not going to change anytime soon either.
Intel will always beat AMD as far as product availability goes.

They wont beat intel because they poverty stricken on node capacity they have to have they plates out for tsmc to feed them

Market share is just % sold per quarter.

Yeah it takes time to build because AMD doesn't want to risk building too many CPUs but it's not too difficult to shift market share (remember Blackberry?)
