- AMD outperformed Intel in 2024 with strong product launches and sales.
- Intel faced issues with its 13th and 14th-gen CPUs, especially the Core Ultra 200S series.
- The Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU sold out fast, and remained in high demand despite stock shortages.
As 2024 draws to a close, AMD has had an outstanding year in the CPU market. In terms of successful launches, robust sales, and satisfied consumers, AMD has surpassed its primary rival, Intel.
While Intel encountered problems with its 13th and 14th-generation, especially the Core Ultra 200S series, AMD’s Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU swiftly became a favorite among gamers.
Why it matters: The 9800X3D sales compared to the 7800X3D highlight its strong demand and popularity, especially among gamers. Despite stock shortages, the 9800X3D outsold the 7800X3D and all other 9000X models.
Since launch the AMD Ryzen 9800X3D has been in high demand sold out in a matter of minutes at well-known stores, making the processor still hard to get today.
Sales figures recently released by German retailer, Mindfactory, demonstrated the 9800X3D’s impressive performance. Mindfactory has sold 8650 units since the market launch. This is more than all Ryzen 9000X (non-X3D) sales combined and also more per day than the Ryzen 7 7800X3D.
AMD is currently dominating the sales chart, as the table demonstrates. That said, the company also occupies all ten of the top slots in best-selling processors. However, sales of the 9800X3D would have been significantly greater if stock problems hadn’t been there.
Hopefully, AMD will be able to further improve their dominance and sales number with the start of the new year, especially when 9800X3D becomes widely available at its original MSRP. Let us know your thoughts in the comments or visit the official Tech4Gamers forums.
