If market capitalisation is anything to go by, then the Intel and AMD win hands down. Competition between these two companies is rife, but are there actually legitimate competitors to what many would call a duopoly?
A worthy competitor to AMD is Nvidia , a well-established company with a major following amongst gamers and mobile computing enthusiasts. Nvidia has also managed to forge deals with truly accomplished companies and industry big players such as Telsa, Toyota and Sony, and last September announced its acquisition of Arm Ltd. Outside of being one of the biggest tech deals in recent times, the acquisition also allows Nvidia to compete with both AMD and Intel in the CPU market.
Nvidia made a name for itself through the production of GPUs graphics processing unit and then leveraged that credibility into chips for virtual reality, artificial intelligence and an array of other applications. Qualcomm acquired NXP in April while announcing in June of the same year that it had made an investment in Amionx, a company that develops technology that is used in the prevention of fire or even explosion in batteries made from lithium-ion.

ASUS is a multinational company based in Taiwan. The acquisition is expected to close by the end of , pending regulatory approval and approval from the shareholders of AMD and Xilinx.
In all likelihood, the two companies will continue to duke it out into the future, swapping places on the leader board as each one pushes the limits of innovation. If the past 50 years are an indication of what the future holds, Intel and AMD will doggedly pursue advancements in processor performance to the delight of gamers and computer users worldwide.
