Intel's (INTC) New GPUs Pose Threat to AMD's Market Share – Yahoo Finance
Intel Corporation INTC recently re-entered the discrete graphics processing unit (GPU) market after a two-decade absence and captured 4% of the market in the third quarter of 2022, according to Jon Peddie Research (JPR), the industry’s research firm for graphics.
Advanced Micro Devices AMD and Nvidia currently dominate the discrete GPU market, with Nvidia controlling the higher-end market and AMD the lower-end market, per a report from The Motley Fool.
Intel’s expansion into the discrete GPU market could potentially hinder AMD’s long-term growth as Intel targets many of the same lower-end PC gamers.

Intel’s Xe discrete GPUs are a new generation of graphics processors introduced in late 2020 and early 2021. These GPUs were designed to challenge AMD’s Radeon and Nvidia’s GeForce in the high-end PC gaming market. Also, these GPUs are produced by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing and are built using a 7nm process.
According to recent industry benchmarks, Intel’s Arc A380 GPU has proven to deliver better performance than AMD’s Radeon RX 6400 across a wide range of games.
This is significant because the RX 6400 is more expensive than the A380, which retails for around $140, while Nvidia’s comparable GTX 1630 costs about $200. Hence, this may make the A380 an attractive option for consumers looking for good performance at a lower price point.
Intel’s market share of discrete GPUs has increased, which is concerning as the overall GPU market has declined 42% year on year to 14 million units in third-quarter 2022. This is due to a shrinking PC market, and Intel, AMD, and Nvidia are all competing for a decreasing market.
Intel designs and manufactures computer chips and other electronic components. Its products are used in a wide range of devices, including personal computers, servers and mobile devices.
For 2022, the company expects non-GAAP revenues to be $63-$64 billion, down from prior expectations of $65-$68 billion, owing to challenging macroeconomic conditions with high uncertainty. Non-GAAP earnings are expected to be $1.95 per share, down from prior expectations of $2.30.
