Jon Peddie Research reports that the global client CPU market expanded in the third quater of 2024 compared to the previous quarter and showed strong growth of 12.2%, and server CPU shipments increased 2% year over year. 

The overall PC CPU market increased by 12% quarter to quarter and by 7.8% year to year.

Server CPU shipments increased by 10.5% from the previous quarter and were up 2% from the previous year; AMD slipped to 24.1% of the market.

The third quarter is typically up compared to the previous quarter. This quarter's total iGPU shipments, which include all client platforms, jumped 7% from the previous quarter and increased 6% over last year. 

“China led the growth of PC CPUs, a large share of it coming from Lenovo,” says Dr. Jon Peddie, president of Jon Peddie Research. “The client PC market continues to jump up and down, but the sharp increase in Q3 is welcomed news. The benefit, if any, from AI PCs is difficult to identify.”

The new Q3’24 edition of Market Watch will contain the above information and more. JPR has changed the report's format from a heavily narrated version to a heavily charted version. Also added are server and client CPU shipment data back to Q1’21 and GPU-compute (GPGPU) shipment data back to Q1’21 for AMD, Intel, and NVIDIA. There is an expanded pivot data array to include those devices.

JPR also publishes a series of reports on the graphics add-in board market, the PC gaming hardware market, the workstation market, the CAD, and content creationmarkets, and other related market studies.
