Intel sold practically nothing, see reports of literally zero Intel sales in a month at Germany’s largest retailer for example.

That means AMD got the lions share which was also lower than expected.

This points more to market slowness than individual company performance. A 4% cut is quite modest with that sort of market.

I don’t think it’s market slowness… more that there’s nothing worth upgrading to.

Now that the x3D came out, and it’s actually better than last gen, it sold out everywhere. People just want good new products.

And yeah 4% is small, just providing insight into why AMD layoffs are a huge surprise.
