Sales data from Amazon's US platform in October 2025 show that there is a huge gap in AMD and Intel CPU sales. According to statistics from @TechEpiphanyYT, the total shipment volume of AMD's Ryzen 9800X3D and 7800X3D processors is about 16,000 units, while the total sales of all Intel CPU models during the same period did not exceed 10,000 units. In other words, out of every 10 CPUs sold, more than 8 are AMD products, and AMD's market share on this platform reaches approximately 83.80%.
Among them, Ryzen 9800X3D and 7800X3D each sold about 8,000 units, showing that AMD's high-end game processors still have strong demand even at high prices. In the low-price segment, the six-core Ryzen 5 5500 sold nearly 5,000 units, ranking third, surpassing Intel's mainstream Core i3 quad-core model.
On the Intel side, Core Ultra 7 265K achieved sales of nearly 1,000 units after the price dropped to below $300. However, this single product failed to offset the decline in market competitiveness caused by price increases for Intel's 12th, 13th and 14th generation processors. Data shows that the average sales price of AMD CPUs is US$272.05, while Intel's is US$308.62, reflecting that AMD focuses on the mid-to-low-end market, while Intel accounts for a higher proportion of high-end configuration user groups.
The consumption behavior of Amazon buyers also shows obvious differentiation. Some users pursue the ultimate gaming performance and choose X3D chips; others value economy and practicality and prefer processors that can balance gaming and productivity. AMD's product positioning and price strategy clearly better meet the needs of these two consumer groups. It is worth noting that some older AMD processors have increased in price, but the Ryzen 9000 series prices are relatively stable, coupled with the strong sales performance of low-price CPUs, pushing AMD's overall average selling price to be lower than Intel.
