SpacemiT Vital Stone V100 Server CPU Packs 6 Performance and 40 Efficiency Cores

SpacemiT has launched their server class risc-v cpu: Vital Stone V100. They give us an alternative to the data center workloads. The product is rich in cores and designed for high throughput computing use cases. This is a critical announcement for customers and system integrators as they can now see a specific direction with RISC-V in servers.

The processor features 8-channel DDR5 and 52 PCIe Gen5 lanes for server workloads

They've a heterogenous cpu with two different core architectures. They've 6 performance cores with Xiangshan Kunming Lake V2R2 architecture. There are also 40 efficiency cores with X100 architecture.
