Let Hygons be Hygons

 

[Ferrum Master]

Well @FordGT90Concept

Too late too late?

 

[dirtyferret]

I had a Chinese CPU once, fifteen minutes after I finished playing a PC game my video card was hungry again

 

[dorsetknob]

$23000 + Tarrif tax

You win the internet points today sir.

I wonder if they're using IF too or just crazy gluing dies together like pantium d

Are they actual knock off dies, or did China get their hands on a early mask?

good for amd they can sell the absolute lowest bins that do not make it to consumer market too.

 

[Zareek]

Joint AMD venture... Hmm...

 

[Vayra86]

You gotta give them credit for being so much fairer about TDP

Joint venture between AMD and China. Effectively, China (technically a Chinese company) bought Zen IP from AMD and is now producing the CPUs themselves. The deal does not extend to newer Zens and I remember some nice legal wrangling to make sure joint venture is covered by x86 license. Initially these CPUs were intended to only use Zen cores but SOC/offcore parts were supposed to be custom but now that these CPUs have been seen in the wild, it is pretty much just rebadged Zen. In another thread someone noted one of the financial documents stating a $60M boost from license payment of this deal.

 

[Divide Overflow]

Great, now we get to look forward to these cheap knock-off CPUs rebadged and masquerading as Ryzen.

I'm in Beijing next week, anyone know where I can buy those?

You sure you will be able to leave the country with that?

From the manafacture >>>>> You are going to do a work related Review

PS see if you can score a couple for that Next TPU competition /Giveaway

He won't get through a scanner with them "hidden" on his person

I'd be interested to see your take on these though W1zzard

 

[Vayra86]

Can anyone explain why that Hygon 7189 has 3x as many points as the 200mhz lower clocked 32C H7185?

Or are those prices?!

Welcome~But...emm, even my friends in Sugon and Hygon, they don't know where to buy

Yup...

AMD to License Chip Technology to China Chip Venture

Advanced Micro Devices Inc. has reached a deal to allow a new joint venture in China to produce chips there using proprietary technology long considered the crown jewel of AMD and its rival Intel Corp.

Considering how US-China relations have soured since then... we'll have to wait and see where the cards lay.

 

[Ferrum Master]

What?


I think this is the result of the joint venture:

Well that is why too late... The sanctions.

From what I heard, AMD is only licensing hard macros, so the Chinese can't make any real changes to the core parts of the architecture. This came from a CPU designer not working at AMD.

Maybe head over to Shenzhen instead? The computer markets there sells almost anything and everything you could possible want, lose or on reel...

 

[ratirt]

Yeah. Wizz get one of these and do some tests. I wonder if they can be pushed a bit more with the frequency than what the table says. Chinese CPUs. I think they can't be that bad but on the other hand I got mixed feelings.
