Chinese chipmaker Montage Technology has unveiled new data center processors under its Jintide brand based on Intel's latest Emerald Rapids Xeon architecture. The 5th generation Jintide lineup offers anywhere from 16-core to 48-core options for enterprise customers needing advanced security specific to China's government and enterprise requirements. Leveraging a long-running joint venture with Intel, Jintide combines standard high-performance Xeon microarchitectures with added on-die monitoring and encryption blocks, PrC (Pre-check) and DSC (Dynamic Security Check), which are security-hardened for sensitive Chinese use cases. The processors retain all core performance attributes of Intel's vanilla offerings thanks to IP access, only with extra protections mandated by national security interests. While missing the very highest core counts, the new Jintide chips otherwise deliver similar Emerald Rapids features like 8-channel DDR5-5600 memory, 80 lanes of speedy PCIe 5.0, and elevated clock speeds over 4.0 GHz at peak. The Jintide processors have 2S scaling, which allows for dual-socket systems with up to 96 cores and 192 threads.

Pricing remains unpublished but likely carries a premium over Intel list prices thanks to the localized security customization required. However, with Jintide uniquely meeting strict Chinese government and data regulations, cost becomes secondary for target customers needing compliant data center hardware. After matching lockstep with Intel's last several leading Xeon generations, Jintide's continued iteration highlights its strategic value in enabling high-performance domestic infrastructure as China eyes IT supply chain autonomy. Intel gets expanded access to the growing Chinese server market, while Chinese partners utilize Intel IP to strengthen localized offerings without foreign dependency. It manifests the delicate balance of advanced chip joint ventures between global tech giants and rising challengers. More details about the SKUs are listed in the table below.

Is this how it works: AMD releases Zen based Eypc for the server market that everyone wants and says hold my beer to Intel. Then while holding beer Intel releases CPU AMD customers don't want to buy but accesses China market, then proceeds to pass the beer back to AMD for holding.

It's funny how they are finally starting to get how names work. Now their names don't stand out as failed google translate names, heh.

Possibly ironic too that the company is named Montage Technology? Perhaps I'm not supposed to notice these things.
Anyway it would be interesting to see benchmark comparisons with their Intel branded counterparts.

Couldn't the same be said about AMD? They also did a collab with China before getting throttled later if I recall properly.
Once China manufacturing catches up, Intel and AMD could be facing difficulties in the market down the road.

Yes and I agree with the Possible outcome but this threads not about AMD, that's the reason I didn't mention them.

China's manufacturing isn't going to catch up unless

A it's allowed to buy the equipment and software required.

B acquires the company who already have those.

Duv isn't going to Catch up with EUV.

The wavelength of light changed for a reason.

IMHO the recent catch up by China was them clicking on to everyone else's Naming convention.

Ie Intel's Angstrom parts are not sub nanometers at all.

And Tsmcs 2Nm is Also a play on word's actually.
