AMD reported record revenue of $13.4 billion driven by a 97% surge in data center sales powered by server processors and AI GPUs, while gaming revenue fell 40% due to lower semi-custom chip sales linked to console cycles. AMD expects data center revenue to double in 2027, outpacing PC sales which are forecast to decline due to higher component costs.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Semiconductors.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Data centre chips just became AMD's main growth engine and a key battleground with Intel. If you build AI or enterprise server hardware, AMD’s rising footprint means new customers and tougher competition ahead.
