Intel’s 10th and 11th generation Core processors do not have many advantages in front of AMD Zen 3 processors. Players in Europe seem to prefer AMD processors. The report from MindFactory, the largest retailer in Germany, AMD processors often lead in sales. But with the release of the 12th-generation Alder Lake processor, the situation began to change gradually.

released the latest sales statistics of MindFactory on Reddit. The sales of Intel processors have accounted for a share of less than 30% since the launch of the AMD Ryzen 3000 and Ryzen 5000 series. Due to the launch of Alder Lake processors, coupled with discount sales of Rocket Lake and Comet Lake processors, Intel processors finally accounted for more than 30% of shipments in MindFactory. The Intel 12th-generation Core was launched in the first week of November. There was no serious shortage of CPUs and motherboards, but the shortage of DDR5 memory made some consumers choose to continue to wait.
On the whole, AMD’s Ryzen processors are still more popular, and CPU shipments accounted for more than 70% in November. The top five in sales are AMD’s Ryzen 5000 series processors, ranked Ryzen 7 5800X, Ryzen 5 5600X, Ryzen 9 5900X, Ryzen 9 5950X, and Ryzen 5 5600G. The sixth place is the newly listed Intel Core i7-12700K, and Alder Lake processor shipments account for a large proportion of Intel processors.
In Intel’s processor shipments, Alder Lake accounts for 37% of overall sales, while Rocket Lake accounts for 34%, and Comet Lake accounts for 28%. AMD’s Ryzen 5000 CPU Vermeer accounts for 68%, Ryzen 5000G Cezanne APU accounts for 15%, and the old Zen 2 architecture Matisse still has 14%.
In January next year, Intel will launch the 12th generation non-K series processors, as well as the more mainstream B660 and H610 motherboards. This will obviously further broaden the Alder Lake market and further increase sales. Of course, AMD also has new processors to be launched at that time, and a new round of confrontation is about to begin.
