First reported by Tom's Hardware, The July Steam Hardware Survey results are in, and it's more bad news for Intel, which saw a 0.75% drop last month while AMD gained 0.74% of Steam users. This shift, which has been a trend for years now, puts Intel CPUs at 59.5%, edging perilously close to losing first place. Meanwhile, AMD CPU adoption on Steam is up to 40.39%, the highest it's ever been, putting it within spitting distance of taking the lead over Intel.
Looking back through Steam's processor usage details through the years on the Wayback Machine, things have never looked better for AMD. The manufacturer cracked 30% share for the first time in more than a decade back in May 2021, and has been steadily gaining (occasionally plateauing) ever since the introduction of AMD's game changer Ryzen architecture in 2017.
