@refalo @yogthos China has a single CPU manufacturer with an x86 licence, Zhaoxin. Their offerings don’t rival AMD or Intel upper end, but they’ve been around for ages and are widely used in China.

with an x86 license

doesn’t that still mean they are dependent on the West technically?

In it’s roots, yes. But the architecture isn’t banned, just the chips. As an analogy, China can make its own internal combustion engines and not buy Ford cars.
