>The Chinese government has been working with VIA Technologies to create their own x86 processor that is able to deliver genuine PC performance on par with the Intel chips it’s trying to replace. The new KaiXian KX-6000 CPU from Zhaoxin has been demonstrated for the first time, promising a 50% performance boost over its previous chip, and the potential to rival a Kaby Lake Core i5 processor. That’s pretty impressive given that we’re talking about a modern 14nm Intel i5 being given a run for its money by a 16nm Chinese chip.
>We don’t know when actual commercial shipments of the new KX-6000 processors are likely to start, but it’s expected to be a 2019 launch.
>The KaiXian KX-6000 is a successor to the KX-5000 CPU launched earlier this year. Both chips integrate eight-core x86-64 cores with 8 MB of L2 cache, a DirectX 11.1-capable iGPU with an up-to-date display controller, a dual-channel DDR4-3200 memory controller, contemporary I/O interfaces (PCIe, SATA, USB, etc), and so on. The key differences between the KaiXian KX-5000 and the KaiXian KX-6000 are frequencies and manufacturing technology: the former is produced using TSMC’s 28 nm fabrication process and runs at up to 2 GHz, whereas the latter is made using TSMC’s 16 nm technology and operates at up to 3 GHz. Zhaoxin claims that the Kaixian KX-6000 offers compute performance comparable to that of Intel’s 7th Generation Core i5 processor, which is a quad-core non-Hyper-Threaded CPU. Obviously, performance claims like that have to be verified, yet a 50% performance bump over the direct predecessor already seems beefy enough.
>Based on the previously published roadmap, we'd expect the CPU to hit the market in 2019, though when exactly is anyone's guess.
China is "globalist" too. Only difference is with these chips you'll be spied by PLA instead of NSA.

wtf I love China now
Aiden Powell
what's the point when AMD's chips are faster and more power efficient?
They make them by license from AMD. If they try to compete with AMD, license is gone.
Robert Hall
you can't take it back
Samuel Edwards
do chinamen get v&'ed from looking at these runes?
Brandon Foster
My bad. It's not AMD, it's VIA. >I've been interested in VIA motherboards and CPUs ever since they came up with the Mini-ITX standard in the very early 2000s. Their approach of bringing fanless and power efficient designs to the x86 market was ground breaking at the time.
>VIA processors are designed by Centaur Technology, and there is an excellent documentary entitled "Rise of the Centaur" retracing their history, which I really enjoyed watching.
>It's unfortunately very difficult to find information about recent VIA x86 CPUs. The VIA QuadCore, their latest one, was announced in May 2011, and it remains an open question whether there will be newer ones or not, as the company seems to be focusing on the ARM architecture.
>In fact the status of VIA's x86 licensing agreement is quite unclear. There was an FTC ruling against Intel in 2010 specifying that a five years extension should be offered to VIA once the ongoing agreement would expire in 2013, and that the agreement should be modified to allow VIA (among other companies) to consider mergers or joint ventures. The later being the way VIA apparently took, which gave birth to Zhaoxin.
>Some information in English about Zhaoxin x86 CPUs is available on WikiChip. However, those CPUs seems to only be available within China. For now?
Juan Bell
As if a license is gonna stop chinaman.
Leo Moore
Only in the dreams of LARPers.

'Chinaman' paid good money to be able to sell these legally.

fucking retard lol OP even says Via... who bought cyrix
>I call it the double dutch irish sandwich but for data security instead of tax avoidance
See above, the hoops that AMD had to jump in order to "legally" license the x64 IP for China.
Jordan Peterson
so these will sell for $30? i might buy one
Andrew Powell
My angle was that the globalist corporations hired Chinese engineers and opened Chinese factories for muh profits, then the Chinese make their own CPUs and the globalist economy reverts back to nationalist economies.
Robert Flores
They'll probably used internally by the government and government funded purchases. I doubt we'll see them in consumer hands for like a decade
Henry Evans
Well, at least I will be botnetted by people who don't know me. I'll take that over the Intel SecureGoy Engine.
Jordan Scott
VIA has been making x86 for decades, they are also Taiwanese. Is chinese government refferring to ROC or PROC?

>Model: ZX-F (KX-7000) >Production: 2019 (Planned) >Node: 7 nm >DDR: DDR5 >PCIe: 4.0 >Performance: similar to 2018 Ryzen
they will not renew it and then magically another chinese company will be making "very similar" cpu's
Gabriel Scott
lmao Joe Capitalist sold out his country because he didn't want to pay American workers a living wage and now Chang Chinaman has stolen all of his IP and is going to bury his fat dumb ass
Jack Moore
Funny how mortal enemies have such close ties.
Ian Price
>Joe Capitalist Implying he cares for anything but money, no matter from where.
>The American Chamber of Commerce in China surveyed over 500 of its members doing business in China regarding IPR for its 2016 China Business Climate Survey Report, and found that IPR enforcement is improving, but significant challenges still remain. The results show that the laws in place exceed their actual enforcement, with patent protection receiving the highest approval rate, while protection of trade secrets lags far behind.
Why? I see a pretty old version running GTA V without any problems. Why should I care about SSE5?
Matthew Ross
I for one welcome our chinese overlords. Let them spy on me, it's not like they're gonna try to sell me shit with intrusive ads and dictate what I should watch or not. The chinese only care about other chinese.

"Monster Hunter World on PC won't boot for users with CPUs that lack the FMA3 instructions(Now Fixed)" "The Crew 2 is not supported by the following processors due to missing instruction sets: - Processors without SSE 4.X Instruction Set (deployed in 2006), including AMD’s Phenom AM2/3 processors - Processors without AVX Instruction Set, released before 2011 or part of the Intel Pentium or Celeron families There is currently no available workarounds, we are sorry for the inconvenience." I can find many more cases and yes this is most likely due to copyright protection like denuvo, but not supporting modern instruction sets is just asking for trouble a few years down the line.
Tyler Hall
>eight core chip >comparable to a non-HT intel cpu
Bet it has worse IPC than bulldozer
Adam Taylor
That's great user, but it has all of these.
David Williams
I feared you would overlook the point and instead fixate on that.
Adrian Cox
>The chinese only care about other chinese
Until they rule the world, in which case they'll be watching you for any potentially harmful "Caucasian nationalist activity with the potential to disrupt social harmony of the Han Empire". And if you step but a tiny bit out of line, make one slanty-eyed joke on Jow Forums.cn, one single errant critique of the government at the dinner table (while your Shenzhen-built IOT devices listen in), and you have yourself a one-way ticket to the Xinjiang Gulag.
So what happens when chinks get good enough with their intel cpu clones? We know they can't innovate, only steal and copy technology
Joshua Ross
>have you tried coping harder?
Liam Phillips

Samuel Hernandez
intel forces to lower their i9 to $99
Aiden Johnson
there will be another holocaust before that ever happens
Hunter Perez
Just like amd is copying intel?
Angel Nelson
Based chinks, I hope I can get this on AliExpress, the Loongsoon crap was hard to find The post gets filtered to them, sometimes the entire thread or even the entire site I'd guess it's either thread-wise or post-wise on Jow Forums since there's chinks on Jow Forums and Jow Forums and the pasta it's at least on a thread at all times
James Reyes
They didn't AMD licensed Zen to an AMD subsidiary that's actually totally chinese but half of it it's AMDs property, it's called Dhaygon or something, it isn't Taiwanese VIA and it's chink (PROC) subsidiary VIA was never alive on high performance chips, until the chinks injected shitloads of cash and R&D into them

I don't speak chink. What am I reading ?
Ayden Collins
Highest model has 8 cores, 8MB L3 cache (?), Supports up to DDR4 2133MHZ(?), has an integrated GPU, supports SSE4.2 and AVX instruction sets (implying it has no support for TSX, AVX2, FMA3, etc.), I don't know what Sm3/4 is read this instead
Wyatt Richardson
>an integrated GPU Stopped reading right there.
Jayden Kelly
Correction, looks like it's 8MB level 2 cache. Fore reference the i9 9900k has 2MB L2 cache, R7 27--X has 4MB. Not sure how it fares with no L3 cache. Also looks like 3GHz on the 8 core so fuck knows what you'd do with this or what sort of motherboard you need.

You retards should be hanged. Do a little research of the things the CPP has done and still does.
By the way, i'm not defending NSA shit.
Jacob Bell
Yeah their whole design is pretty different compared to typical AMD and intel solutions. As much as I dislike china it is cool to see new takes on x86 architectures. it be especially interesting if these chips actually are on an i5 level if performance, though knowing cheap chinese crap that sounds like its just an outright lie.
Daniel Watson
>16nm No thanks, my 14nm++++++ has a long way to go.
