Loongson, one of the best domestic chips, has successfully taped out the latest 3A6000, which is said to have the same performance as Intel's 10 Core. This will provide the possibility for domestic PCs to replace American PCs.
Loongson adopts a completely self-developed architecture loongarch. After nearly 20 years of hard work, it has gradually caught up with CPU research and development, and can upgrade its architecture almost every two years. It is comparable to the upgrade of American CPU companies such as Intel and AMD. The rhythm is about the same.
Although the domestic chip strives to improve the performance of the CPU, so far only Godson has developed a high-performance CPU. Other domestic chip companies using the ARM architecture have been limited by the performance limitations of the ARM architecture and have been difficult to develop a powerful CPU. The footsteps of CPU replacing American chips.
Now the performance of Loongson 3A6000 is comparable to Intel's 10th generation Core, which will meet the performance needs of most consumers in China. After all, there are still many consumers who still use Intel's 7th generation and previous CPUs. It can be seen that most Consumers' requirements for performance are not as high as imagined, and the performance of the Godson 3A6000, which is equivalent to the 10th generation Core, has exceeded consumer demand, providing a huge possibility for replacing Intel's CPU.
The successful research and development of a powerful CPU makes Loongson full of confidence and is no longer satisfied with the PC market. Loongson has developed a 32-core server chip Loongson 3D5000, which has entered the server chip market and seized the high ground of American chips. This has already made American chips feel panic.
The industry knows that American chip companies Intel and AMD monopolize the PC market. Their X86 architecture CPUs can provide powerful PC processors. In addition, they have formed an alliance with Microsoft to form the Wintel alliance. Over the years, through the operating system and PC processing The weapons are upgraded in turn, so that they can make a lot of money.
However, the PC processor market has been torn apart by ARM. The ARM-based M-series processor developed by Apple has caught up with the X86 processor in terms of performance and lower power consumption. Mac computers and MacBooks using Apple’s M-series processor With powerful performance and better battery life, notebook computers can be made thinner and lighter, and they are aggressively grabbing the PC market.
In the server chip market, Intel and AMD still maintain a monopoly position. The market share of non-X86-based server chips is only about 1%, and the performance gap between ARM-based server chips and X86 is too large, making it difficult to shake X86 in the server market. Therefore, Intel and AMD still make huge profits in the server chip market, and most of Intel's profits come from server chips.
In consideration of information security, China has been trying to replace American X86 server chips with ARM-based server chips. The ARM-based server chips in the Chinese market have achieved nearly 10% of the market share, but they still face many difficulties due to performance problems. Now the self-developed server chip developed by Loongson has broken the performance bottleneck, and it is expected to truly break the monopoly of American chips in the server chip market.
Faced with the rapid development of chips in China, Intel has felt tremendous pressure. Intel has recently established a technology innovation center in Shenzhen, China, to strengthen cooperation with Chinese companies. It is estimated that it has seen the infinite possibilities of Godson, and hopes to release goodwill through this The behavior ensures that it continues to generate significant revenue in China's PC processor and server chip markets.
Facts have proved that only when our independent research and development achieves a real breakthrough, American chip companies will truly face up to Chinese chips, and will truly put down their stance and strengthen cooperation. China will also further promote the development of self-developed chips. After all, we have seen great hope.
