PC market sleuths Mercury Research and Jon Peddie Research have both announced their latest judgments in the never-ending battle between AMD and Intel, as to which one is selling the most processors. Focusing on x86 chips for desktop, mobile, and server platforms, the findings claim that it's all going very well for Team Red, but it's still Team Blue that rules the roost for now.

Starting with Mercury Research's report, sent to us directly, it suggests that in the last three months of 2025, AMD had a 29.2% share of the x86 CPU market (not including embedded or IoT processors). With Intel obviously taking up all the rest, that might not sound like great news for AMD, but it is 4.5% better than the same period in 2024.
