It's a market where Intel already has the biggest market share. They keep improving their IGPs but it isn't their main target. Last quarter they already had a market share of 65,1%. To achieve even more they had to do dedicated cards but I doubt they will ever do this. Larrabee ended in Xeon Phi but I doubt this will ever reach normal consumers.

A big part of that is due to it being harder to find computers with AMD and most people not even realizing the difference. All my PCs for now on will be powered by AMD I like them for taking a stand for consoles and I am mad at Nvidia for comparing 1000$+ GPUS to a 400$ console lol

I would want to correct with "and most people not even caring about the difference". People who buy IGPs intentionally (whether AMD or Intel) are not the hardcore gamers, anyway. I don't know about the current state of tech regarding Notebook tech but Intel was intentionally chosen far more often in Notebooks as their designs generally had way better TDP and idle power consumption. IIRC the Turion never had a chance against Centrino based Notebooks and therefore only a few barebones featured AMD tech.
