Intel and AMD sign longer-term server CPU deals with Chinese customers as prices rise

Intel and AMD are securing longer-term purchase commitments with Chinese server customers as data-center processor prices rise by up to 40%. This surge is driven by China's increased focus on AI server design and assembly. Simultaneously, AMD has introduced Epyc processors based on Zen 6 architecture and claims a 46% share of the server CPU market. These developments highlight strong component demand within China's expanding data-center infrastructure and the competitive landscape of processor providers.
