AMD is capacity limited, why should they reallocate plenty of capacity into ryzens when products with much higher margins and basically no competition are selling like hot cakes. This doesnt have to do anything with the customer side but mostly AMD controlling its supply channels and naturally focusing on enterprise and data center... its simple economics, stupid.

Not really a surprise about the client side - if your workload is heavily multi-threaded, you will tend to go with the system that gives you more cores (even if some of those are efficiency cores), if the price is the same (or nearly the same).

Matt - spell check won't notice if you use the wrong word.

Hint: read isn't the same as red.

Agree.
Intel played the long play back then and killed Ruiz's (then CEO that tried to expand too much with the Athlon 64 , X2 and Opterons) without having a newgen chip on the horizon.
They ended paying a lot back then..

Not surprising. Puget is still kind of a niche player in the system builder market. Yet they charge a premium for their systems.

Clients who are building desktop AMD systems are looking for value, not a premium price tag. However deeper pocket investors (Large Corporate Entities) often look past initial price tag when it comes to TCO.

The sales history of top selling CPU's on Amazon and NewEgg says it all.

I've never heard of them here (Europe) and I think your comment "niche player in the system builder market"
is correct.
I'm not even sure why this is worth an article?
The headline sounds like it is a big deal, but it really isn't.
Their customers in the "Media & Entertainment" need most likely multi-core performance = Intel for mainstream, or Threadripper, where AMD is outselling Intel.
Government & Education are slow to change or want to cover their back to 100% anyway = they stick with what they have.
So, as non-US reader, I'm not sure what to make out of this article and the report from Puget,
and the point of it.
