According to the latest John Peddie Research report, AMD is definitely live and kicking and even managed to increase its GPU market share up to 21.9 percent last quarter, or 10.9 percent more when compared to the last quarter.

AMD did quite good when compared to its competition as while Intel gained some market share it was only up by 6.2 percent and still holds 62 percent of the share. Nvidia lost some of its share and dropped 8 percent last quarter and is now down to 16.1 percent. Despite its announcement of many Haswell design wins it appears that slow GPU sales have taken most toll on Nvidia.

Both Intel and AMD are selling quite a lot of APUs which pretty much killed the entry-level GPU sales. Currently 99 percent of Intel non-server CPUs ship with integrated graphics while AMD is somewhere around 67 percent. The JPR also contains one quite surprising figure which states that AMD managed to increase its mobile APU shipments by 47.1 percent. While Intel and AMD gained some market share in the GPU department, the general GPU shipments in Q2 were down by 6.8 percent when compared to the same quarter last year, while general PC shipments were down by 11.2 percent.
