Chinese #Hygon 16-core chip trades blows with #AMD #Threadripper 1#950X in Geekbench — China's chipmaker continues to leverage #AMD's #Zen1 architecture
But Hygon is stuck with the seven-year-old architecture, for now.
The #CPU is named Hygon C86-4G - alternatively dubbed C86 3490 - a step higher than the eight-core C86 3350 - belonging to the same Hygon C86-3000 family.
Still, modern-day CPUs such as the Ryzen 5 5600 (#Zen3) put it to shame with less than half the cores.
