Hot on the heels of releasing surprisingly competitive new CPUs, Loongson also announced that it is developing a new GPGPU -- but its performance specs fall far below competing GPUs from Nvidia.
With demand for artificial intelligence (AI) and high-performance computing (HPC) accelerators on the rise as US sanctions severely impact China's access to the fastest GPUs, multiple domestic companies are trying to address the market with specialized processors. Loongson, a prominent CPU developer from China, recently introduced its LG200 accelerator that can process AI, HPC, and graphics workloads, reports El Chapuzas Informático.
