#4>>if we compare it to some recent measurements of Ampere Altra, AMD EPYC, and Intel Xeon, taken by Andrei over at AnandTech, the Yitian 710 should be fairly competitive at 128 cores.
Impressive. I did not expect riscv to progress so quickly. Intel is much weaker than we all thought after all. Hats off to these clever engineers.

#5Intel is gonna be in deep trouble in couple of years. They are the PowerPC of modern era. IDK what held them back from reimagining the architecture for less power hungry processors and tooling. With Mac mainstream switching to ARM and Microsoft doing something similar, I think within next 5 - 10 years ARM is gonna take over Intel architecture in general.

To be fair these are fabbed at TSMC and TSMC has been kicking Intel's behind for some time now.

"The Yitian 710 integrates 128 custom-designed ARMv9 cores"
That one isn't a RISC-V chip.

One of their repos has a bunch of patches/scripts to be able to run Android on the CPUs[1]. (XuanTie C910)
The linked video (https://occ-oss-prod.oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com/share/risc...) is impressive! Open source Android running on an Open Source CPU.

I think alderlake is very promising. Big-small designed cpus, even on x86, seem like the way to go.
