Russia Plans Replacing Intel and AMD Chips with Domestic Brand

Russia Plans Replacing Intel and AMD Chips with Domestic Brand

Russia has let it be known that it will be replacing Intel and AMD processors in government operated computers and replacing them with home-grown Baikal computer chips. The first products will be Baikal M and M/S chips, designed on the basis of 64-bit nucleus Cortex A-57 made by UK company ARM, with frequency of 2 gigahertz for personal computers and micro servers. 

The Baikal chips will be installed on computers of government bodies and in state-run firms, which purchase some 700,000 personal computers annually worth $500 million and 300,000 servers worth $800 million. The total volume of the market amounts to about 5 million devices worth $3.5 billion.

Initially this abandonment of Intel/AMD CPUs only appears to be aimed at government/state-owned systems and in the near-term aren't any plans to abolish US-made hardware or any import bans. The new Russian-made processors are called "Baikal" and designed by T-Platforms in cooperation with Rostec and Rosnano. The Baikal name for the processor is in reference to Lake Baikal, the deepest fresh water lake in the world
