Zhaoxin, in June, released its LuJiaZui CPU which was built off on 16nm process node and offers an x86 microarchitecture.The CPU will be part of the KaiXian KX-6000 family which is aimed at both, mobility and desktop PCs. As reported by WikiChip, Zhaoxin is in the process of designing out its next generation of SOCs for the KaiXian and KaiSheng series. with the latter being designed for a range of server and data center applications.

The current KaiXian KX-6000 processors are based on the Lujiazui architecture. They only offer up to eight-core with a base clock of just 3 GHz. Still, Zhaoxin's newer KX-7000 chips would be using a new (unreleased) architecture which would be built on a 7nm manufacturing process, and offer an iGPU which was not included in the KX-6000 processor.
