The performance is bad.

The performance is 5-10% slower than Intel Core i3-10100F and AMD Ryzen 3 3100.

With such bad performance, I wonder who is the buyer?

Loongson is mostly applied for the military usage.

The military wants the most reliable chips, not the ones with highest performance for those smartphones.

shocked at these people who proclaim this is bad.. and comparing it to intel and amd.. where majority of real use chips are not even in PC but in industrial and military..

I don't know about bad. Most ppl who desire "powerful" CPUs usually just want to use them to games. So long as the CPU can decode 4K videos at 16.7million colors (and 1080p videos at 60fps and 1.07 billion colors) that's enough for all other modern uses.

it depends on the use case. for most industrial use cases - it is more than enough as they dont have to run fat operating system like windows - but simpler ones or cut down linux variants etc..

Somethin tells me you've never actually used nor ran Linux before. The fat man is the Linux OS not Windows. Linux is slow like arse compared to Windows because it's open source meaning no developer gets paid to work the code into an overpowering beast (so they don't care and just contribute whatever bloated code works into the open source repository).

I'm frowning/cringing every time I hear China/another non-US country "develop" (meaning they just cut and paste codes from the open source repository and apply a custom skin on top) yet another variant of Linux...
