Torrent-1: a RISC-V vector implementation inspired by the Cray X1 vector machine
(hackaday.com)
The crux of most supercomputers is the ability to operate on many pieces of data at once — something video cards are good at, too. Enter T1 (short for Torrent-1), a RISC-V vector inspired by the Cray X1 vector machine.

Alibaba/T-HEAD's Xuantie C910: An open source RISC-V core
(chipsandcheese.com)
T-HEAD is a wholly owned subsidiary of Alibaba, one of China's largest tech companies. Over the past few years, T-HEAD has created a line of RISC-V cores. Alibaba seems to have two motivations for pushing RISC-V. On one hand, the company stands to benefit from creating cost effective chips optimized for areas it cares about, like IoT endpoints and edge computing. On the other, Alibaba almost certainly wants to reduce its dependence on foreign imports.

Ask HN: Are there any open source RISC-V processors that I can buy and use?
(ycombinator.com)
As of now there are some places which offer small RISC-V processers, such as the StarFive JH7110 (used in DeepComputing DC-ROMA), however when I went to the website it said the CPU was proprietary. Are there any fully open source RISC-V CPUs that are not just hardware simulations that I can actually buy?

A RISC-V Progress Check: Benchmarking P550 and C910
(chipsandcheese.com)
RISC-V has seen a flurry of activity over the past few years. Most RISC-V implementations have been small in-order cores. Western Digital’s SweRV and Nvidia’s RV-RISCV are good examples. But cores like those are meant for small microcontrollers, and the average consumer won’t care which core a company selects for a GPU or SSD’s microcontrollers. Flagship cores from AMD, Arm, Intel, and Qualcomm are more visible in our daily lives, and use large out-of-order execution engines to deliver high performance.

SiFive's P550 Microarchitecture
(chipsandcheese.com)
RISC-V is a relatively young and open source instruction set. So far, it has gained traction in microcontrollers and academic applications. For example, Nvidia replaced the Falcon microcontrollers found in their GPUs with RISC-V based ones. Numerous university projects have used RISC-V as well, like Berkeley’s BOOM. However, moving RISC-V into more consumer-visible, higher performance applications will be an arduous process.

RISC-V is making moves, but it has work to do if it wants to hit the mainstream
(theregister.com)
RISC-V has been talked up as a challenger to Arm and x86, offering an open royalty-free architecture that promises flexibility and innovation without licensing costs. But for all the noise, you're more likely to find it buried inside IoT gadgets and obscure embedded systems than powering anything that'll typically grab a headline.
