Germany's largest hardware retailer has yet to sell a single Core Ultra 200S CPU

In context: Intel's desktop Core Ultra 200 processors precocious launched to lukewarm reviews, and nan caller chips haven't prevailed complete their predecessors aliases nan Ryzen 7000 bid successful online retailer income charts. However, nan business astatine nan German storefront Mindfactory looks particularly dire for nan company. Given its caller problems, Chipzilla needs a win, but this lineup doesn't look to beryllium it.

Intel's Arrow Lake Core Ultra 200S desktop CPUs are obscurity to beryllium recovered successful nan first income study from Germany's largest PC retailer pursuing their launch. Instead, products from competitor AMD's past 3 CPU lineups astir capable nan full chart, leaving Intel almost wholly unopen out.

According to a income floor plan that TechEpiphany shared this week, Mindfactory sold 730 AMD processors and only 40 Intel CPUs. Team Red's marketplace stock reached almost 95 percent, and nan company's gross from nan retailer dwarfed Intel's by good complete an bid of magnitude.

AMD's Ryzen 7 7800X3D is easy nan apical seller and nan only merchandise to waste successful nan triple digits astatine 190 units. Out of 32 listed CPUs, 28 are Ryzen 5000, 7000, and 9000 chips. Meanwhile, nan only 4 Intel products to make nan database are 13th- and 14th-generation Raptor Lake CPUs, each trading 10 units. Although Mindfactory sold a fewer chips from AMD's precocious launched Ryzen 9000 series, Intel's caller Core Ultra 200 lineup is wholly absent.

Team Red is likewise ascendant successful caller rankings from American retailers for illustration Amazon and Newegg, but Arrow Lake astatine slightest manages to make an quality there. Amazon has sold astatine slightest 100 Intel Core Ultra 7 265Ks, and that processor ranks 27th connected Newegg.

Understanding Arrow Lake's worrying commercialized debut isn't difficult. In our review, we noted that nan 265K and its larger sibling, nan Core Ultra 9 285K, suffer from inconsistent gaming capacity and show only ray productivity gains. Despite important powerfulness ratio improvements, nan lineup could beryllium a misfire for Intel. Slightly older CPUs connection akin aliases amended capacity astatine importantly little prices, truthful their fame isn't surprising.

If nan business doesn't improve, it whitethorn adhd to Chpizilla's already mounting problems. The institution precocious dug itself retired of nan contention surrounding crashing Raptor Lake CPUs but still suffers from declining revenue, weakening stock, and speculation astir splitting disconnected its divisions. Intel is expected to station its first yearly nett nonaccomplishment since 1986 this year.
