Whenever the old fox opened the computer to prepare, the boot screen was the familiar Windows English word.
Maybe other people don't feel anything, but the old fox sometimes thinks, if the boot screen is fully Chinese, and the operating system is a domestic system, what will it look like?
Furthermore, if this computer, not only the operating system, but also the chip, the motherboard to the graphics card, are all domestic, what will it look like?
This computer, which originally existed only in the old fox's fantasy, has recently become a reality:
Loongson Zhongke Guanwei recently announced that equipped with pure domestic chips and operating systems, the core components to achieve 100% localization of the Baode Self-Strengthening Loongson desktop PT620L3 is officially listed.
It's finally here! Mainland China also has purely homegrown computers! Seeing this news, the old fox felt excited.
Lao Fox carefully searched for relevant information and learned that PT620L3 is a desktop product based on Loongson 3A5000 processor, which supports domestic independent security BIOS and security trust modules to protect users' private data information.
Baode Ziqiang PT620L3 is a completely domestic independent safety product, pure domestic blood.
PT620L3 host adopts 100% domestic chip, 100% domestic operating system, fully supports domestic office suites and video playback, graphic display and other tools, and the core components are 100% localized.
The domestic chip it applies, Loongson 3A5000, is a new generation of desktop CPU platform released by LoongArch in 2021, using LoongArch autonomous command system architecture.
Clock frequency 2.3GHz-2.5GHz, including 4 LA464 processor cores, fully autonomous, no foreign authorization required.
In terms of performance, in the GCC compilation environment, the fixed-point and floating-point single-core Base scores of loongson 3A5000 SPEC CPU2006 reach more than 26 points, realizing rapid multi-task operation.
It can be quickly started within 30 seconds, effectively supporting PT620L3, and is used in various government agencies, industries, enterprises and institutions for efficient office.
The PT620L3 host features discrete graphics + dual-channel DDR4 UDIMM memory + rich audio and video interface, with stable performance and powerful scalability.
It can be seen that the various parts of this computer are pure domestic. Memory, GPU graphics, hard disks, motherboards, all autonomous.
Even the operating system is no longer the common Windows and MacOS, but the domestic operating system.
This is a great step, the first step in the complete autonomy of the industry.
The first step has never been easy. Today, when the computer industry is basically controlled by foreign companies, to kill a bloody road, key choices need to be made.
In that year, when Loongson first entered the chip market, it could choose to do X86 structure, because doing so could ensure that most programs could run on the chip.
However, X86 is an architecture developed by an American company, and if you want to use it, it is equivalent to handing over your lifeblood to someone else.
To get out of control and to be self-reliant, you must embark on the most difficult path.
Therefore, Loongson did not do X86 architecture, but chose to develop its own architecture.
Loongson first acquired MIPS's instruction set technology, and then developed a instruction set called LoongISA based on the MIPS instruction set.
After gaining some experience and technical accumulation, LoongArch launched the LoongArch instruction set architecture.
Just last year, LoongArch's interrupt model was officially approved for inclusion in the ACPI International Specification, and the instruction set architecture that incorporated the ACPI specification became three:
One is Intel's X86 in the United States, and the other is ARM held by Anmou Holdings in the United Kingdom.
The third is LoongArch, from China, Loongson.
At this stage, the Loongson chip, in terms of performance, may have a certain gap with AMD, Intel and other large manufacturers.
However, as a manufacturer who has been late for more than 20 years, it has been able to catch up with the current point, loongson is already valuable.
In the past, when the wind and waves were calm, we were still in the middle and lower reaches of the industrial chain, and we might feel at ease.
But when the economy fluctuates, when the trade war starts, when Huawei is suppressed, we understand the taste of being manipulated.
Without developing their own chips, without building their own motherboards, without developing their own industries, they have always been at the mercy of others and will never be able to develop.
This pure domestic desktop is the first step of industrial autonomy.
Only by being autonomous can we strengthen ourselves.
