Intel CEO On Losing Market Share To AMD: “We Lost Share, We Lost Momentum. We Think That Stabilizes This Year”

Their desktop department is relatively healthy. Their biggest issues are the aforementioned 2-generation platform support, but also the power draw. In a world where energy prices are skyrocketing, this can be a very big drawback to some clients - especially business clients who need to fill entire offices with computers. And those offices more and more switching to laptops isn't doing Intel any favors right now due to the exact same issue, which gives them atrocious battery life.

Also, these days desktops are by far the smallest section of the market, so just being strong there will not be doing much good to their market share.

All in all, power draw is their biggest issue. If Intel can solve that, then they can win shares back both in Laptop, but also in server segments, as here much is calculated in performance per watt, where Intel really doesn't shine. While they might not reach the scalability of AMD, they could still thrive just below the top after doing so.

The three main things I'm looking at on a CPU are performance, price and power used, so yeah, some of us take that very seriously.
