AMD continues to dominate the market for the most sold processors for PCs. On Amazon (thanks Wccftech), one of the most important retailers, the top ten best-selling processors are all from AMD, covering different generations of Ryzen CPUs. This confirms the company’s strong performance over the last few years.
Top-selling Ryzen Processors
The best-selling processor is the Ryzen 7 7800X3D, an older-generation processor with 8 cores and 16 threads, featuring 96 MB of L3 cache. It is one of the most powerful for gaming and is based on the Zen 4 architecture. The second-best seller is the Ryzen 5 5500, which has 6 cores and 12 threads, 16 MB of L3 cache, and is based on the Zen 3 architecture.
The third-best-selling processor is the Ryzen 7 9800X3D, the most powerful for gaming. It has 8 cores and 16 threads, 96 MB of L3 cache, and is based on the Zen 5 architecture. In fifth place is the Ryzen 5 7600X, with 6 cores and 12 threads, 32 MB of L3 cache, and the Zen 4 architecture.
Other positions on the list are filled by other popular processors that still offer good performance, such as the Ryzen 7 5800X and the Ryzen 7 5700X3D.
Intel’s Struggles
There are no Intel processors in the top ten best-selling processors on Amazon. The Core Ultra 200 desktop processors have been a failure. Intel indirectly acknowledged this when it stated that its Raptor Lake processors are selling better than the new generation, and the price drops on models like the Core Ultra 7 265K confirm this.
