“High performance” and “leader” are funny claims to make while posting no benchmarks
- slaw 4y agoIt needs to be manufactured first.
- dmitrygr 4y agoThat’s NOT how it works. You can simulate it and state MIPS/MHz, for example. Do your really think that the first time silicon designers find out the performance of a chip they designed is when it tapes out?
- LeFantome 4y agoI would say both perspectives are valid. You are correct that performance is “known” at design time. That said, as this is a new platform a little healthy “believe when I see it” is warranted not just for the performance of this new chip but also about when it will ship and what it will be competing with by then. It looks very promising though.

- qwytw 4y agoThis is only theoretical though. Especially no real data on power usage and cost.
- LargoLasskhyfv 4y agoUhm. There is the mention of 300W under the SPECint bar to the right. For 128 cores of V(ersion?)1. Theoretical, or not. Also the headline: The First RISC-V Shot Across The Datacenter Bow /me morphs into Dark Fader and intones: I find your lack of enthusiasm disturbing… … …
