AMD pushed Intel again. The company took a record share in the processor market
AMD has managed to achieve a record share of the processor market for itself, according to analysts at Mercury Research, cited by Reuters.
According to the results of the fourth quarter, AMD took 31.3% against 68.7% from Intel. A year earlier, AMD had 25.6% of the market, and the third quarter ended with a figure of 28.5%.
AMD’s success as a whole is primarily due to advances in the server market. It is there that the company’s share has been steadily and steadily growing since the release of the first Epyc CPUs. Now the share of AMD in the server market is 17.6% against 10.7% a year earlier. That is, in just a year, the indicator increased by 70%!
In the desktop segment, AMD holds 18.6% against 16.2% a year earlier and 13.9% a quarter earlier. Significant growth is visible, but it is worth noting that in the second quarter, the share of AMD was 20.6%.
As for the mobile segment, here AMD is doing much worse. Now the company holds 16.4% against 15.7% a quarter earlier, but a year ago the share was 21.6%, and even two years ago it was higher (19%).
It is worth noting here that we are talking about the x86-compatible CPU market above, and now this is important, since the share of Arm architecture PC processors has grown quite significantly thanks to Apple, reaching 13.3% against 10.3% a year earlier.

Nvidia says its Grace CPU Superchip is twice as fast as x86-compatible processors for the same power consumption
Nvidia said that its Arm-based Grace CPU Superchip processor in tests with real workloads shows a twofold increase in performance compared to x86-compatible CPUs in the same range of power consumption. With which processors Nvidia compared, it is not specified.
The company says these figures mean data centers can handle twice as much peak traffic for the same power consumption if they switch to Grace. Or they can cut their energy bills by almost half while maintaining productivity.
Nvidia itself says that Grace provides such results thanks to three main factors. Firstly, these are 72 Arm Neoverse V2 cores in one CPU (Grace CPU Superchip, we recall, contains two CPUs on one board), and secondly, in fact, the combination of two such CPUs via the NVLink-C2C interface with a bandwidth of 900 GB / s , third, the use of server-class LPDDR5X memory.

Asus GeForce RTX 4090 XG Mobile Graphics Dock external graphics card goes on sale starting at $2,000
Asus introduced the external GeForce RTX 4090 in the form of the XG Mobile Graphics Dock at the beginning of the year. Now this product is on sale for a very impressive amount.
In Japan, they ask for $ 3,000 for the device, but Japanese prices are sometimes much higher than global ones. In this case, the device is also available in Canada for about $2,000.
True, we are talking here, of course, about the mobile RTX 4090 Laptop – it is she who underlies the module. In terms of performance, it roughly matches the desktop RTX 4070 Ti. The module itself consists of two parts: one contains the 3D card itself and a set of ports, and the other houses a 330W power supply. True, the TGP value for the adapter is limited to 150 watts.
Probably the biggest downside of the device is that it is only compatible with select Asus ROG Flow laptops.

A new Nvidia 3D card with 20GB of memory and a 160-bit bus costs $1,250. But the RTX 4000 Ada has very low power consumption
Yesterday Nvidia unveiled the monstrous 188GB H100 NVL graphics accelerator for training language models, and now the company has added a card to its range that sits on the other side of the product line. The RTX 4000 Ada professional adapter is much smaller, much simpler, and clearly much cheaper, though we don’t know the price of the H100 NVL yet.
The RTX 4000 Ada, on the other hand, costs $1,250. And in terms of its parameters, this is a very unusual product. For example, it has 6144 CUDA cores (about as much is attributed to the GeForce RTX 4070 video card), 20 GB of memory, but only a 160-bit bus. At the same time, the consumption of the novelty is so small (70 W) that it does without additional power connectors!
Such a modest power consumption with good parameters is due to the GPU frequency, which reaches only 1.56 GHz. For comparison, the RTX 6000 Ada is 2.5 GHz.
The performance of the novelty (FP32) is 19.2 TFLOPS. Also noteworthy are four Mini DisplayPort connectors and a dual-slot design.
