The upcoming Veyron V2 CPU coupled with the Imagination Technologies GPU can scale up to 192 cores and, thanks to new RISC-V RVA23 extension support, it is expected to beat AMD's EPYC Bergamo 120-core / 256-thread processors in certain workloads.https://www.notebookcheck.net/Ventana-and-Imagination-Technologies-develop-RISC-V-CPU-GPU-that-may-outperform-AMD-s-EPYC-Bergamo-128-core-CPU.765572.0.html
Until it sees something other than a CPU designers screen and actually reaches taping or someone funds the fabbing of the design, its just a prediction based on simulations. Even if it does reaches taping, AMD will have moved on to something else and more performant. Being a RISC-V, it probably outperforms any application that takes advantage of a massive super pipelines.
In the summary "EPYC Bergamo 120-core" should presumably be 128-core.

Right, fixed.
i've been waiting for any RISC-V laptop for a while.
i'll believe it when i see it (in an unpacking youtube video or in my own lap). until then, these news buzzes are all smoke and mirrors.
Now the SD has effectively entered the ARM market w/ something powerful, we're going to need to see something from RISC-V developers like SiFive to step-up up
