The middle point of our guidance represents approximately 66% year-over-year revenue growth, primarily driven by the acceleration of our Data Center segment.&#8221; AMD says its Q4 revenue projections are up another 27 percent from this quarter&#8217;s results. As reported <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomshardware.com\/pc-components\/cpus\/amd-expects-to-outsell-intel-in-q4-for-the-first-time-in-history-usd17b-guidance-would-exceed-intels-projections\">by Tom&#8217;s Hardware<\/a>, Intel&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.intc.com\/news-events\/press-releases\/detail\/1786\/intel-reports-third-quarter-2026-financial-results\">Q4 guidance<\/a> places revenue estimates between $15 billion and $16 billion. That means that if both companies land where they expect to at the end of the fourth quarter, AMD would exceed Intel&#8217;s revenue for the first time in history.<\/p>\n<p>The data center segment of AMD&#8217;s business was up 97 percent year over year, with a record $8.5 billion. AMD attributes the growth to demand for its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amd.com\/en\/products\/processors\/server\/epyc.html\">EPYC line<\/a> of enterprise server CPUs, along with the launch of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amd.com\/en\/products\/accelerators\/instinct\/mi400.html\">Instinct MI450 series GPUs<\/a>. Sales of AMD Ryzen mobile chips led growth in the Client business, which includes desktop Ryzen processors and posted $2.95 billion in revenue, up 7 percent year over year.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/gadgets\/2026\/11\/amds-record-quarter-data-center-business-doubles-while-gaming-craters\/\">Read full article<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/gadgets\/2026\/11\/amds-record-quarter-data-center-business-doubles-while-gaming-craters\/#comments\">Comments<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"wpematico_credit\"><small>Powered by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wpematico.com\" target=\"_blank\">WPeMatico<\/a><\/small><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AMD reported third-quarter revenues on Tuesday with a record $13.4 billion, an increase of 45 percent year over year, as data center business nearly doubled and the company&#8217;s gaming segment cratered.
