  1. #China’s #Loongson launches homegrown 16-core server #CPU built on #LoongArch architecture — 40W chip with DDR4 ECC and 32 PCIe lanes targets cheap SMB file, database, and web #servers
    Support for China’s local software and hardware ecosystem also appears to be a selling point
    Unlike the 36C000, which Loongson says matches Intel’s Xeon, company is positioning #3C3000 as a low-cost, high-performance #server CPU for customers that need general-purpose compute rather than AI

  6. New blog post! Are x86, ARM, and even PowerPC too mainstream for you? Let's all say hello to LoongArch, by getting a Loongson motherboard from a Chinese scrap market.

  16. Ok now that's cool looks like Asus finally puts out Firmware updates for their released #Loongson #LoongArch motherboards public.

    Here for XC-LS3A6M:
    asus.com.cn/supportonly/xc-ls3

    Here for XC-LS3A6M-A:
    asus.com.cn/supportonly/xc-ls3

    Way more stable and fan controls work now.

  17. Weird new computer arrived. While it looks like a regular mini-PC it has a Loongson 3A6000 CPU with 4 cores, 8 threads and a MIPS derived instruction set architecture (ISA). The aim is to install Chimera Linux on it, and have it be a test bed for building packages, and testing software compatibility. Depending on power consumption I might give it some server duties too.

  22. Got the #Loongson booting Debian Linux finally. Had to update the BIOS to get the installer to boot and the cheap USB wifi dongle kept dropping off the network. More to come once I get more time to play with it!

  27. I have gotten my #Loongson 3a5000 to at least POST and make video. I'll have to get a Linux install together to run on it. Anyone know how to make the speaker stop shrieking during the UEFI shell? #loongarch
