▲ 22 r/RISCV
Has RISC-V met the performance and features of these two processors (in post) with the release of RVA23 Profile and RVV 1.0 or is there more of a gap in performance (K3 or Ascalon X)?
Does it currently meet the performance of one of these processors/feature sets?,
Core 2 Duo T750 @ 2.0 GHz (2007) or to the Core i7 875K @ 2.93 GHz (2010).
I'm not too certain about the K3's performance for regular desktop use, with half its cores dedicated to AI. I just don't have a use for it. The price of RAM just makes it ridiculous to use AI locally. Just looking for a general-purpose computer. Maybe with some NPUs. Really thinking Intel for now, but maybe later, RISC-V, when the software gets optimized; need more focus on desktop functionality for the hardware, from RISC-V International.
This is not to poop on RISC-V at all, just a reflection of the current situation. :)
