Chinese Pre-Built PC Review: ZhaoXin CPU + Knock-Off Windows OS, ft. NeoKylin
We're reviewing a pre-built computer bought in China, the THTF TZ561-V3, which features a custom Linux build (NeoKylin) and a ZhaoXin X86 CPU.

Our review of the THTF system goes a lot deeper than just talking about the pre-built's component quality and pricing: We deep-dive on Chinese Linux distributions and Windows knock-offs, talking about NeoKylin, Ubuntu Kylin, Linux Kylin, Galaxy Kylin, and the differences between them. We also resurrect the topic of the ZhaoXin CPUs, an x86 CPU made in cooperation with Via and Centaur, cutting AMD and Intel out of the conversation. The THTF system can't be bought in the US, but it's not a particularly good deal in Asia, either. This system is clearly targeted at future government use, as Intel and AMD will soon be barred from the systems in use by officials. Consumers can still buy parts from foreign companies, but the agencies will be unable to do so, and so we see the emergence of ZhaoXin and boxes like the THTF TZ561-V3.
