China prepares for release of the first processor with 32 cores
Loongson will launch a new 3D5000 chip with a series-record number of cores. To achieve this result, the company had to cheat a little.

From a technical point of view, the new device is a chiplet for the LGA 4129 socket. It consists of a pair of 3C500 chips based on the LoongArch architecture with 16 LA464 cores, support for four-channel DDR4-3200 RAM and 64 MB of cache with a backing. Four of these devices are capable of forming a combination of 128 cores with 8-channel memory.

Test shipments of the device should begin in the 1st half of 2023. Mass production of server chips is planned later.
