XHEART X9 large-model chip planned for launch in 2027, compute raised to 3000 TOPS
XHEART has disclosed for the first time the core R&D goals of its next-generation large-model chip, the XHEART X9: 3000 TOPS of large-model compute and 700GB/s of per-chip memory bandwidth, with launch planned for 2027. The X9 will continue the "large models define the chip" technical approach, advancing software-hardware co-design around next-generation world models. XHEART is a company spun off independently from Momenta's chip project; its first chip, the X7, achieved bring-up in less than 24 hours after the chip came back from the fab.

IT Home, October 29, on-site news: At the end of today's launch event, XHEART brought out "X more thing."
XHEART CEO Li Zonglin said the company will maintain its R&D cadence of "mass-producing one generation, developing one generation, and pre-researching one generation," completing R&D and validation at each stage.
IT Home learned at the launch event that XHEART also disclosed for the first time the core R&D goals of its next-generation large-model chip, the XHEART X9 — 3000 TOPS of large-model compute and 700GB/s of single-chip memory bandwidth. The chip is planned for launch in 2027.

IT Home note: XHEART is a "sister company" independently spun off from Momenta's chip project. From the company's founding to chip mass production, XHEART took two years. After the first X7 chip came back from the fab, it was powered on in less than 24 hours, and on the 17th day it achieved a full-vehicle closed loop of the chip, underlying software, and intelligent driving model, and withstood testing on real roads and in complex weather.
