China's Making x86 Processors, But Does It Matter?
Like and subscribe. This is an archive channel, i'm not the owner of the content, check the link in the end. The two major companies making and selling chips using the x86 instruction set are some of the most prominent in the tech community: Intel and AMD.
In 2020 Intel sold $20 billion worth of processors to China. AMD had $2.3 billion. Both figures are on par with or higher than what those companies make from the United States. China is a massive market for these two. And China knows it too. So it is interesting to see some Chinese companies coming out with home-grown x86 processors of their own.
Is a domestic swap in the works? How did China acquire x86 technologies in the first place? The whole thing is worth looking into, to say the least. So I thought to do a video about it.
EDIT: For those interested in seeing how the Hygon benchmarks, I recommend the fantastic piece done by Anandtech: https://www.anandtech.com/show/15493/hygon-dhyana-reviewed-chinese-x86-cpus-amd
