Loongson’s latest flagship model, the LS3C5000, features a 16-core 64-bit processor clocked at 2.5 GHz and is ready to compete with established architectures such as AMD Zen 3, The Register writes.
Despite moving away from x86 and Arm compatibility, Loongson has focused on MIPS and RISC-V ISA, which are gaining traction in niche markets including network-attached storage.
As China seeks greater autonomy in technology development amid geopolitical tensions, Loongson’s foray into cloud computing and virtualization with Lenovo’s backing marks a critical step in the fight against AMD and Intel in particular.
