    Intel data center CPU sales hit the lowest point in 13 years

    Intel data center CPU sales hit the lowest point in 13 years

    Sales of Intel’s data center CPUs in 2024 hit their lowest level in more than a decade due to increased competition from AMD, the transition to higher-core count models amid a drop in the number of CPUs, and a market shift to AI servers that use up to eight GPUs and just two CPUs. As analysts from SemiAnalysis observed, unit sales of Intel’s data center CPUs in 2024 dropped by 20% from 2011 levels and over 80% from 2021. 

    “DCAI revenue increased by $182 million from 2023, primarily driven by an increase in server revenue,” Intel’s recently published Form 10-K reads. “Server ASPs increased by 12% from 2023, primarily due to a higher mix of high-core-count products. Server volume decreased by 10% from 2023 due to lower demand in a competitive environment and a higher mix of high-core-count products.” 

    There are multiple possible reasons why Intel’s server-grade CPU sales have hit their lowest level in 13 years in 2024. 

    Intel’s server CPU chip volume hit the lowest in last 14 years for the second straight year in 2024. It’s <50% of the previous peak of 2020.

    Intel’s data center CPU sales began to ascend sharply in the mid-2010s due to the rise of cloud data centers. Back then, Intel did not have any real competitors, so the number of cores did not increase quickly, which stimulated cloud service providers to buy more CPUs to meet the performance demands of their customers. 

    Then, Intel processor sales increased in 2018 due to Meltdown and Spectre mitigations that reduced the performance of already installed CPUs and prompted CSPs to buy more servers with Intel CPUs in 2018. Competition from AMD became stronger in 2019, which is why sales of Intel CPUs for data centers slightly dropped that year. 

    Then came COVID-19, and demand for cloud computing increased again in 2020 and 2021, further driving sales of Intel server CPUs. 

    However, in 2022, demand for general-purpose servers slowed down while AMD unveiled its 4th Generation EPYC processors with up to 96 cores, far exceeding the number of cores in Intel’s top-of-the-range Xeon CPUs. As a result, the blue team’s unit shipments dropped in 2022 and then collapsed in 2023.

    In 2024, Intel finally released its Xeon 6 processors with up to 128 high-performance cores or 144 energy-efficient cores, so unit sales of Intel server CPUs declined slightly once again as customers switched to high-core-count models. The good news is that Intel’s data center average selling prices have increased, but it isn’t yet clear if the company can regain share in a market that has now shifted focus, and spend, to AI accelerators.
