Chinese fabless CPU maker Zhaoxin announced two next-generation processors at the World Artificial Intelligence Conference 2025: the server-class Kaisheng KH-50000 and the AI-enabled consumer KaiXian KX-7000N. The Kaisheng KH-50000 represents a substantial upgrade from its predecessor, featuring 96 cores compared to the current generation's 32 cores. This positions it directly against AMD's EPYC 9004 Genoa series with matching specifications. The processor operates at clock speeds between 2.2 GHz and 3.0 GHz, though Zhaoxin has not confirmed whether simultaneous multithreading is supported. Memory and cache specifications include 384 MB of L3 cache, six times larger than the KH-40000's capacity. The processor supports 12-channel DDR5 ECC memory and provides 128 PCIe 5.0 lanes with Compute Express Link interconnect capability. Multi-socket support through ZPI 5.0 allows configurations with two or four processors, enabling systems with up to 384 total cores. Its current KH-40000 series uses Zhaoxin's Yongfeng architecture. However, the significant performance improvements and feature additions showcased hints of a new (yet to be disclosed) architecture for the KH-50000.

The KaiXian KX-7000N marks Zhaoxin's entry into AI-capable consumer processors. Based on the existing KX-7000 design, it incorporates a neural processing unit for AI workloads. The processor features increased core counts, however the company didn't provide any numbers (the KX-7000 has eight cores). It also gets an upgrade from PCIe 4.0 to PCIe 5.0 support. Zhaoxin demonstrated several AI PC systems using the KX-7000N at the conference but provided limited technical specifications.
