The report also breaks down sales by CPU socket type. AMD's AM5 platform continues to be the most popular, with 1,210 units sold, followed by the older AM4 platform, which recorded 360 units. On the other hand, Intel's platforms are struggling. The LGA 1700 socket sold only 130 units, while the newer LGA 1851 socket sold just 70 units.
