One of the last remaining desktop CPU makers was recently disbanded. Their last prototype, codenamed Centaur Hauls, promised much more than a normal processor could do…

i mean when you have gigabit to switch, which has 10gbit to a Steam cache server that they run in-house, then getting a third of that is an indication that something is slowing down this platform quite a bit. Even very budgety modern computers won't struggle to saturate a gigabit link under these circumstances, with decompression running at only about 100MB/s and disk write up to 200MB/s tops and usually less. It's not about slow downloads so much as a slow machine.

Stuff like thus just shows how broken patent law is, where It's next to impossible to become a CPU company. Large companies can decide to limit innovation because It's not fiscally responsible to the shareholders. Hope RISC V eventually creates new innovations and companies with an emphasis on having open designs.

@@n_core Nope. That depends on licensing, but RISC-V is under BSD and other licenses that are friendly to building proprietary systems. While exciting, RISC-V isn't likely to set the high-performance CPU world on fire. What it is doing is making "we want to integrate a CPU into our own ASIC" more approachable. ARM charges quite a bit for core licenses, and more for architecture licenses, that let you build your own thing. RISC-V is likely to be worse than ARM, and nowhere close to x86/_64 for binary compatibility support. That is, you'll never buy software in a box that says "runs on RISC-V". So far, the most successfully RISC-V implementations have been hardware+software embedded things, not "computers" in the end-user-device sense of the word.

x86 and ARM are both well over 30 years old. If I was running the world, they'd be open standards by now. Yeah, if you have a great idea, you should be able to profit off of it instead of some giant company swooping in, out-competing you on your own invention and stifling new ideas (because why bother), that's what patents and intellectual property are for, but they also stifle innovation, as seen in this video.

NVIDIA, i know even less about tbf, is only for some high end server things? I'm really unsure what nvidia does in that space tbh.

I remember a listing for a CNS or CHA board and CPU for around $400 iirc, I only acquired one of the Zhaoxin development boards. The concluder feature is present there too and is very cool. Thanks for getting some more eyes on this chapter in x86 history, Centaur's next gen stuff could have been something special. During the history lesson VIA X4 wasn't mentioned, but it was really just two X2s glued together.

The ability to change CPUID has been standard feature for Via's processors for awhile. This is one of the reasons why it was discovered that Intel was nerfing performance on code running on non-Intel processors. Linux support likely exists in Via's own labs. Support probably was never sent upstream to public repos. Some stuff could still be lurking out there in non-mainstream repos.

Changing where traces go on a commodity printed PCB is trivial compared to developing a manufacturing process for a socket interface. So makes sense they would do dev on an existing socket. (altho, they could have added a piece of plastic somewhere to key it to their cpu ... to prevent smoke, lol)

Based on the mention of Cyrix: Oh man, I had those Cyrix CPU's way back then. IIRC a Cx486DX4-100 with a "whopping" 16MB of RAM and I had a Tseng Labs ET4000/W32i with 4MB of video memory. That thing was awesome, could play the triple-a's like Doom II (from memory guys, correct me when wrong) full-screen. I miss those days... Especially cramming out the most memory for your TSR's and whatnot. Commands like DOS=High,UMB and local loadhigh. It's so long ago 🤭

Centaur isn't Cyrix. It's WinChip. Both have been acquired by VIA. VIA merged Cyrix, they owned, into WinChip. VIA, however, shut down Centaur in 2021. And Intel hired some of Centaur engineers. Yet VIA still have Zhaoxin, so this will likely appear in feature Zhaoxin processors. And hopefully sooner than later - in KX-8000 generation.

Then we could sell it to the recycler for more than usual, since we did the work of extracting it for them.

Wow, I'm getting old! I do remember running early NES and SNES emulators on Cyrix processors way back when Intel's Pentium and the AMD's K-7 were the mainstream CPUs. You had to fiddle with the settings to get mostly full speed and Xinput controllers did not even exist yet. It felt mindblowing as the SNES was still widely in use.

A close friend used to work at VIA/Centaur... We love to geek out and talk about hilariously old technology he worked on, as well as more modern iterations of it. Computers haven't really changed much in 20 years, except the power consumption and clock speeds have skyrocketed. In my humble opinion, FPGA such as ARM have proven to be comparable to larger x86/64 architectures

Some of the info in CPU-Z is from tables and other information hard-coded into the application. The various logos shown in the application are part of the application - The Intel bitmap for example is what it shows if it can see the CPU is an Intel CPU but can't actually find a more specific logo to use based on the other properties, which makes sense given what this CPU actually is.
