Slow but bona fide made in China
Loongson's current-generation 3A6000 processor, one of the fastest designed and made in China for consumers, is now available in a line of mini PCs.. It has pretty standard specs that fit its ¥2,799 price tag: 16GB of DDR4-3200, a 256GB PCIe 3.0 SSD, Wi-Fi 5, and Bluetooth 5. The PC runs Loongson's Loongnix operating system, which is based on Linux.that debuted last year. The 3A6000's LoongArch architecture takes cues from RISC-V and MIPS, which Loongson used for its prior CPUs.
The same review showed the 3A6000 matching the Core i5-14600K when at the same clock speed of 2.5 GHz, indicating the Chinese CPU has an equivalent instructions-per-clock rate of Intel's Raptor Lake architecture. Other reviews found the 3A6000 matches the IPC of AMD's 2020 Zen 3 architecture. In the wider market of mini PCs, the Morefine M700S isn't a great deal overall. There are plenty of entry-level models that boast AMD and Intel chips with more performance than the 3A6000, and sometimes more memory and storage, too.silicon from the country. That would leave Loongson and similar companies such as Zhaoxin, which makes x86-compatible CPUs, as candidates to fill the void in the PC market.
Intel reckons the NPUs that power the 'AI PC' are needed on your lap, on the edge, but not on the desktop
