European PC enthusiasts continue to see value in choosing AMD Ryzen processors over Intel Core, as the latest public data by German retailer Mindfactory.de, which ships across the EU, shows AMD processors outselling Intel 2:1. Although earlier Intel would have the upperhand in revenue despite lower volumes, this time around, AMD shored up revenues on the backs of high-margin products such as the Ryzen 7 2700X and the HEDT Ryzen Threadripper series. 
 
The 6-core/12-thread Ryzen 5 2600 is the most popular processor offering high value under the 200€-mark. It is followed by the 8-core/16-thread Ryzen 7 2700X. Buyers prefer the 2700X to the cheaper 2700 non-X. The Ryzen 5 2600X is another strong seller. Over in the Intel camp, the Core i9-9900K and Core i7-9700K are strong sellers, followed by the i5-9600K and the newly released i5-9400F.
 
These numbers are not indicative of the overall market, since Mindfactory caters to DIY PC gamers and enthusiasts only. What this does show in my opinion is that Europeans are price conscious when building their own PCs. 

AMD Ryzen 9 7950X,  Corsair Mp700 Pro M.2, 64GB Corsair Dominator Titanium DDR5  X670E Steel Legend, MSI RTX 4090 Associate Code: H5U80QBH6BH0AXF. I am NOT an employee of EVGA

    I am not surprised to see the DIY industry is starting to see value in AMD since it costs less to build a system using AMD but overall the DIY market is pretty small compared to the prebuilt market that Intel has a solid lock on and results in most of the money Intel brings in. It seems Intel is using that money to bring in new talent from the likes of AMD and others.
