Intel accounted for 80.1 percent of global revenue for microprocessors in Q3 2010, up 0.1 percentage points from Q3 2009, but down 0.3 percentage points sequentially in Q2 2010. AMD lost market share on both sequential and year-over comparisons, but the decrease amounted to less than one percentage point. The company accounted for 11.3 percent of worldwide microprocessor revenue during the period, down 0.9 percentage points from Q3 2009 and down 0.2 percentage point from Q2 2010.

"In reality, the share changes in the third quarter from the two incumbents were extremely small and not at all significant," Matthew Wilkins, principal analyst for compute platforms at iSuppli, said in a statement. "What is significant, however, is that neither company has been able to take any sizable share away from the other. One reason is that each company offers well-matched competitive product portfolios. Another reason is that end markets are not undergoing significant changes in market share of product lineup that would impact microprocessor market share."
Wow...AMD the 2nd largest and it only has 11 percent. I didn't think Intel was that dominant....
2nd largest. Out of 2 main players that can also be called dead last. If they wanted to Intel could consume AMD right here and now.
Yeah, you're right there.

Besides VIA, who else would be under "others"?
Amazing that Intel has that big of a chokehold on the market. However, if people have the money for it, oh well.
However, I am very satisfied with my 965BE. Best $160 I ever spent on a CPU. That's one thing AMD has over Intel, Performance Value for your dollar.
intel doesn't deserve such a market share...
IBM (Cell, PowerPC, Power), ARM, Freescale, Sun/Oracle, Fujitsu, LSI, MIPS, SPARC and Tilera spring to mind.

Sorry to burst your bubble. Factoring in energy usage any LGA 1156 cpu is better performance value for your dollar compared to an AMD counterpart. If I ran an AMD I would have spent more than the intel after around 6 months because I use my pc alot.

I was as confused as princeton was. Then I realized that he, like me, was reading this post from the website formatting and not the forum format.
I can't get to the forum format is the ****ing problem :P. Why did techspot have to remove the links on the page?
EDIT:
Oh wow we have to go through the forums. How dare techspot add another 5 seconds needed to access this!
just built a desktop, got a phenom II 740 BE for about 80 bucks, and I am now using a unlocked quad core stable at 3.4.
thats pretty good performance per dollar to me. the overclocking part isnt really fair because you can OC an intel too, but even if I left it a quad core at 3.0, it would still be a great deal at 80 bucks.
