- AThe latest report from the analytical company Counterpoint Research has brought quite interesting results. At the end of the last year, the chipmaking industry leader has changed. Samsung was able to surpass its main competitor and headed the rating.
The success of South Korean company was mainly due to the high sales results of flash memory NAND and DRAM. At the same time, Intel showed stability, but without high performance.
