The competition between AMD and Intel remains intense, despite Intel's larger market share. In recent years, AMD has emerged as the preferred choice for gamers, often topping sales charts, including Amazon's CPU best-sellers list.

Just yesterday, AMD dominated the top 15 spots instead of Intel. Surprisingly, the top processor was AMD's Ryzen 7 9800X3D, a high-end gaming chip, priced at$480, despite its occasional stock shortages.

The top 15 list featured a mix of older and newer AMD processors, such as the Ryzen 5 5500 and Ryzen 5 5600X, indicating that AMD has successfully kept older hardware relevant and in demand.

However, today's best-seller list paints a slightly different picture, as Intel has managed to secure several spots, with older models like the Alder Lake chips offering more affordable alternatives to current AMD processors.

Interestingly, Intel's latest Arrow Lake processors did not make it to the top 50 best-sellers on Amazon. This suggests that many customers prefer the more affordable Intel options or turn to AMD, which has shifted the market dynamics significantly in recent years.
