AMD's Q2 2025 CPU share report is now out by Mercury Research, and showcases a huge growth in the desktop "Ryzen" department.
AMD Posts Big Desktop Share Growth Thanks To Strong Ryzen "X3D & AM5" CPU Sales In Q2 2025
Mercury Research has shared its latest revenue and unit share figures for the first quarter of 2025, and it looks like the Red Team is once again posting some big wins. While the server won the previous quarter in terms of unit and revenue share, this time, the crown goes to the desktop segment, which has resulted in strong share results for the company.
Starting with the server side of things, AMD's unit share increased to 27.3% while its revenue share increased to a monumental 41.0%, a 0.1 and 1.5 point gain versus the previous quarter and a 3.2/7.2 point gain vs last year. The 41% server revenue share is unprecedented for Team Red, and it's the highest since the release of the first EPYC CPUs.
The company states that strong growth across cloud and enterprise was the reason for this impressive revenue landmark. With the Turin ramp and AMD providing a solid roadmap for what's ahead in the form of Venice and Verano, AMD is poised to continue its share growth in the server segment.
- Server revenue share increased 7.2% points Y/Y and 1.5% points Q/Q to a record 41%.
- Client revenue share increased 9.8% points Y/Y and 1.3% points Q/Q to 27.8%.
- Desktop revenue share increased 20.5% points Y/Y and 4.9% Q/Q to 39.3%.
- Mobile revenue share increased 3.9% points Y/Y and 0.7% points Q/Q to 21.5%
- Overall revenue share increased 8.8% points Y/Y and 1.3% points Q/Q to 33.0%.
Desktop led in the unit share with a massive 32.2% unit share versus 28% from the previous quarter and just 23% in the previous year. This marks almost a 10% growth in a single year. Once again, AMD's strong sales for its AM5 and even AM4 segments were the result of this record growth. The desktop revenue also increased to 39.3%, almost matching the 41% share of the server segment.
We have seen AMD's AM5 and especially X3D CPUs topping the charts on several online retailers versus Intel offerings, which Ryzen has crushed entirely with the latest Zen 5 offerings (Ryzen 9000/9000X3D). Based on rumors, AMD is extending its X3D portfolio with new offerings that should further shake things up in the mainstream and enthusiast segments.
Lastly, we have the mobile segment, which saw a slight decrease from the previous quarter to 20.6% unit and 21.5% revenue share. Despite the lower quarterly figures, the mobile segment is still an improvement versus the last year, with a 2.8 point unit share growth and a 9.8 point revenue share growth. Ryzen AI 300 is still ramping, and due to higher demand, both the standard and the Ryzen AI MAX chips are still low in quantities.
AMD has once again posted a disruptive quarter in regards to their x86 CPU share. With strong Ryzen & EPYC CPU sales on desktop and server fronts, I don't believe anything till 2030 will be able to shake the momentum that Zen has built since its inception.
