RISC-V Shipments Soar in Edge & IoT Devices Once a niche academic project, RISC-V is now shipping in billions of devices, especially at the edge. RISC-V International reports the ISA is implemented in over 13 billion cores on the market as of end-2023 riscv.org – a stunning rise driven largely by IoT and embedded use…

In mid-2025, x86 remains the top performer for legacy software and high-end workloads, with 64-core or 96-core Xeon/EPYC-class servers still setting the benchmark. Apple’s M-series SoCs, built on 8–10 core ARM64 designs and led by the M1 (2020) and M2 generations, demonstrate high performance-per-watt that rivals many x86 laptops. RISC-V’s open, modular ISA uses a…
