As it turned out, a slight increase in AMD’s share of the Russian desktop processor market in May was a purely temporary phenomenon. According to the price aggregator and marketplace Yandex.Market, in June the situation returned to its usual scenario – a systematic increase in the popularity of Intel’s offers by several tenths of a percentage point per month. As a result, AMD’s share in June dropped to 50.8%, which is the worst result for this company in the last three years.
The growing interest of buyers in Intel processors is primarily due to their better availability. Various offers from AMD periodically disappear from the shelves or are sold at inflated prices, and this situation is typical not only for the Russian market, it is observed everywhere.
However, AMD processors continue to confidently hold most of the top positions in the ranking of the most popular desktop offerings, with the six-core Ryzen being the main stars in it. Ryzen 5 3600 is in first place with a share of 8.4% for the next month in a row, the newer six-core Ryzen 5 5600X in June received a share of 5.6% and was in fourth place in demand, and the available six-core Zen + generation, which is still available in sales, Ryzen 5 2600, became the fifth most popular with a relative share of 4.0%.

The six-core Intel Core i5-10400F is also in the top five, its June result is 6.3% and the third place. It was not in the top 5 last month, but now, thanks to a rather noticeable 12% price reduction, it is once again among the best-selling processors in Russia.
It is also symptomatic that for the third month in a row one of the AMD processors with integrated graphics has invariably entered the top 5. The scarcity of discrete graphics accelerators and exorbitant prices for the available offerings are pushing users to choose hybrid CPU models. Last month, the Renoir family member, the Ryzen 5 PRO 4650G, was in high demand, but retail stocks started running low in June, so consumer interest shifted to the Ryzen 5 3400G of the earlier Picasso family.

Among other interesting trends, the deliberately low interest of Russian users in the latest Intel Rocket Lake processors deserves mention. Having appeared on store shelves more than three months ago, they have not yet become any noticeable participants in the sales ranking. The most popular of the 11th generation Cores – the eight-core Core i7-11700K processor – boasts only a 1.5% share, which does not allow it to rise above the 18th place in the table of ranks.
