Puget Systems, a custom computer building company specializing in configuring workstations for professional users, has published its annual Hardware Trends statistics. As a disclaimer, this data only reflects the preferences of Puget Systems' customers, who have vastly different needs than the average consumer, requiring high-end machines for content creation and scientific research. You get the idea.
Before we jump into the data, the statistics only include workstation and rackstation sales, not including servers and mobile counterparts. The data has been reported as percentages instead of raw numbers for a better overview. For basic terminology, client CPUs typically refer to AMD's Ryzen and Intel's Core lineup of processors. Moving over to workstations, we have Threadripper and Xeon W, whereas EPYC and Xeon Scalable / Xeon 6 families are designated for servers.
