>> Sure, in Q4, Intel had 78% of the CPU market (in units) and AMD had 22%. Intel sold 3.55x as many CPUs as AMD. But Intel's CPU revenue was 7.329B and AMD's 1.307B, a ratio of 5.6. Therefore, the average price of an Intel CPU is 5.6/3.55=1.58 times larger than the average price of an AMD CPU.

in the comparison you cited "But Intel's CPU revenue was 7.329B and AMD's 1.307B,",

Is intel's revenue (7.329B) comprised of CPU's only, or does it include chipsets that Intel makes and motherboards that are resold ? I've read that Intel makes 60% of all PC chipsets.

Petz, on Intel revenue, price per CPU calculations

Unfortunately, you can't figure out easily how much revenue Intel generates from their CPUs as they have this vast "Other" category where advertising co-ops and other "marketing strategies" are buried. So Intel's 7.3 billion in revenue may have a billion in off-setting costs in the "Other" category that really should be attributed to "Cost of Sales", but aren't.
