DIY CPU retail market for processors is extremely tiny market. Very high margin, but insignificant.
AMD's challenge is getting enough processors out in the enterprise market. They need to grow the market share now when they have the technical advantage. Intel can sell their inferior CPU's for higher price because they can deliver large volumes and satisfy demand.
Revenue comparison 2018:
Intel $70.8 billion
AMD $6.5 billion
AMD is fabless, so they are in competition with other GF and TSMC customers for manufacturing capacity. Apple,Nvidia,Qualcomm and many others.
