According to various reports, Chinese graphics accelerator technology company MetaX Tech, known locally as mu xi, will have a gaming GPU for the domestic market by 2025. interview, the company’s co-founder, CTO, and chief software architect Dr. Yang Jian reportedly shared the MetaX GPU roadmap. It contains details of a high-performance GPU that is ready to take on foreign rivals.
Apparently, MetaX is now making good progress both financially and in development. Earlier this year, its heterogeneous 7nm GPU was taped out and ready for manufacturing. Moreover, it is said that the production of this product will start “soon”. His second flagship GPU for scientific computing, AI inference and data centers is currently in the final stages of research and development, with volume production planned for 2024.
However, none of these products meet MetaX’s goal of becoming a Chinese manufacturer of high-performance GPUs that fully competes with foreign flagships. According to Dr. Yang, such a product is necessary because China’s GPU market accounts for his 40% of global consumption.
Unlike some other Chinese GPUs, the MetaX product reportedly uses an “independently designed GPU architecture and instruction set, using in-house developed core IP from the ground up.” This philosophy contrasts with Innosilicon, which recently confirmed its high-performance and efficient Fantasy GPU powered by Imagination Technologies (PowerVR) technology.
To seize the chance to become China’s leading GPU pioneer, MetaX’s next step is to develop a complete all-round GPU that not only accelerates GPU computing computation, AI, or scientific computing, but also achieves great results. to complete the development. Step into graphics rendering acceleration.chinese tech site my driver (opens in new tab)Part of my interview with Dr. Yang Jian made me understand that by 2025, MetaX will have a fully functional gaming GPU ready.according to MetaX website (opens in new tab)I believe the gaming GPU line will be given the moniker “MXG”.
last week UDN (opens in new tab) reported that MetaX’s engineering team is primarily made up of engineers who previously worked for AMD. The same source claims that China’s Moore Threads GPU development work is largely led by former Nvidia engineers. Other Chinese companies developing GPUs include the aforementioned Innosilicon and Zhaoxin with GlenFly GPUs.
With concerns over high-tech weapons likely to tighten tech sanctions against China in the coming months, the above development plans look sensible to replace a possible shortage of foreign GPUs. As of this writing, the global GPU market appears to be booming, but by the next great GPU crunch (if one occurs) there will be enough Chinese-made GPUs to ease the shortage. hope it will be supplied to
