When the top perf per watt or perf per MHz machine is RISCV, we'll talk. Until then, lol.

- brucehoult 3mo agoSelf-evidently, you therefore won't be the person building this machine.
- dmitrygr 3mo agoNope. I don’t want to work on systems that self-handicap in dumb and predictable ways. Mistakes happen. But mistakes that were preventable and knowable at design time … they are inexcusable, and RISCV is chock-full of those.
- brucehoult 3mo agoI disagree.
- sylware 3mo agoMany here wish for the non IP-locked RISC-V to get performant micro-achitectures for embedded/server/desktop/mobile that on the latest silicon process (without that, you can have a very good micro-architecture, that won't probably make the difference). If some RISC-V high performance CPU manufacturers are being bought by big hardware actors: either they are scared of its competition and want to scrap it or they want to be part of RISC-V.
