This article is I post on chinese forum,if you can see the chinese,you may can know the cpu article better.

(Because my English is so~~ bad.)

Hygon is made of AMD's "zen" architecture

When AMD is facing bankruptcy,they sell the "zen" architecture for 300 million（I forget is CNY or USD）

This CPU is look very like with AMD EPYC,also Hygon is in Socket LGA4094(SP3),same of the EPYC.

I have a Hygon Dhyana C86 7151 CPU（x86），it has

2.0GHz      16Core/32Threads      TDP：150W         32MB L3

It likes EPYC 7281,right?

It made of GlobalFoundries（2019）   14nm ZEN

（On 2020，it will made of Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation）

 

There have some text on the cover ：

On the left it meaning Made in China and Designed in China ChengDu

On the right it meaning "Calculation the future with chip"

Simply put，Hygon is a EPYC，just replace the cover ，modify the BIOS and add the chinese encryption and decryption module in it

But HYGON is not exactly EPYC，they add the chinese encryption and decryption module in it.

And chinese encryption and decryption module get the ON.1 in global encryption and decryption testing.

It can support Windows Server / Linux and lots of system,But it can't support Windows 10 well.Maybe have some BUG

On the 2019 COMPUTEX Taipei ，HYGON can use in Tyan S8026.So HYGON is not doing too many  modify.It can use in SP3 Motherboard。（x399 maybe can't）

 

HYGON's quantity and type is so less.     ↓ ↓ ↓

HYGON 3165 (？?GHz 6C/12T ?MB L3)= Ryzen 1600

HYGON 3185 (3.4GHz 8C/16T 8MB L3)= Ryzen 1700

HYGON 5130（I forget this）

HYGON 7151 (2.0GHz 16C/32T 32MB L3)= EPYC 7281

HYGON 7155 (2.2GHz 16C/32T 32MB L3)= EPYC 7281

HYGON 7185 (2.0GHz 32C/64T 64MB L3)= EPYC 7601

【   HYGON 3000 = RYZEN(BGA)   /   HYGON 7000 = EPYC(LGA)   】

It has nothing to do with bankruptcy. 

AMD made a deal and licensed the ZEN cores (and maybe infinity fabric) but NOT Zen+ or Zen2 (most Ryzen 3xxx processors)

 

The Chinese group can take the Zen cores and add stuff around them, like those Chinese only things (and removing some US things)

There's more detailed information on Anandtech if you want to read : https://www.anandtech.com/show/15493/hygon-dhyana-reviewed-chinese-x86-cpus-amd

 

Level1 Tech also has video with Hygon and one from another company :
