New sales data from Mindfactory has revealed the continued success story that is AMD Ryzen. The top 13 places are occupied by Ryzen CPUs, with the evergreen Ryzen 5 3600 still selling by the truckload. With the Zen 3 Ryzen 5000 series launching soon, and rumors of a Ryzen 5 5600 for next year, Team Red will likely go from strength to strength.

Now AMD needs to get their s*** sorted in the mobile market.
Ryzen 4000 is awesome, but availability is just a joke!
Most people needing a laptop can't wait 3 or 6 months so they just buy one with an Intel processor.
Even worse. I would love to see the AMD chips in high-end laptops like the Thinkpad X1 extreme or the XPS 15. But no manufactories in their right mind will invest the engineering time and resources in creating such a product until they can trust that the CPU supply pipeline isn't studently just drying up for months and months...
100 spots in Mindfactory's CPU charts and 100 spots in Mindfactory's laptops charts, you will still review only Intel models, because it seems that playing with the final score in not enough. Renoir models are getting better.

Go to a Best Buy. You can walk out of the store today with one of multiple models of AMD 4000 series laptops.
