AMD keeps gaining on Intel in servers, but desktop PCs tell a different story
What just happened? AMD has hit another x86 CPU milestone, with Mercury Research figures showing the company now holds 38.1% of overall market revenue. That sounds like another win for Team Red, especially given its huge gains in servers, but there is a surprising caveat: AMD actually lost ground in desktop PCs during the first quarter.

Gamers Are Wrong About 1440p vs 1080p CPU Benchmarking
Here We Go Again, or: Why GPU Bottlenecks Hide True CPU Performance.
Gamers keep demanding 1440p CPU benchmarks, but higher resolutions often hide the very performance differences CPU testing is supposed to reveal. Here's why 1080p still matters most.

AI infrastructure boom pushes AMD, Intel and Arm to new valuation heights
Nvidia still dominates, but AI demand is lifting the rest of the chip market
Bottom line: Demand for AI infrastructure has been reshaping how investors value chipmakers, and recent results from key suppliers have strengthened the view that compute-intensive workloads will continue to grow. The effect has been evident with CPU vendors as of late. AMD's stock traded at $278 on Thursday, putting its market value at about $454 billion. Intel's rally from early March pushed the stock toward $68 and lifted its market cap to just under $340 billion. Arm's shares, meanwhile, traded close to $165, valuing the company at roughly $174 billion.
