Rostec, a Russian state-backed company, is working with Yadro and Syntacore to create RISC-V processors for desktop PCs, laptops and servers, initially aimed at government and education devices and looking to launch by 2025.
According to a report by Vedomosti.ru(and reported by Anandtech at https://bit.ly/lxf281russia), the new processors will use RISC-V cores, and will initially be an eight-core CPU running at 2GHz and using a 12-nanometer process. Syntacore already develops its own RISC-V core, so it’s likely the processors will use that, and will utilise a “high-performance 64-bit RISC-V application core”, according to documentation published by Anandtech.
