There’s even Milk-V Pioneer desktop you can buy using this chip now https://milkv.io/pioneer
this is a paper discussing its performance, while it still lags x86 based chips, the paper notes that performance of RISC-V based chips is improving very rapidly and the gap is pretty small already https://arxiv.org/pdf/2309.00381.pdf
Damn, already reaching Threadripper levels in the RISC-V world. Nice!
