I'm sure it'll perform about as well as a dual socket LGA 2011 server, DDR4 makes sense since its not exactly like its a performance monster and theres plenty of it available. Its a good first step for self sufficiency, which isn't unexpected given the way things have been the last few years. They may even have something relatively decent in the next 5 to 10 years.

TH keep going on about how this is not cutting edge tech an not in the same league as Intel/AMD, are they getting paid by western chips giants to put down Chinese efforts??

The Chinese kit doesn't have to be cutting edge but good enough to do the job, so what if it takes 1 extra second to calculate, they do what the Chinese do best, make the things cheaper using state money and bigger to offset, result is less reliance on the west while the west scurry to withdraw from cheap Chinese manufacturing to cheap India or Vietnamese labour but this takes time and private money.
