50 TOPS DC-ROMA RISC-V AI PC is Here

May 12, 2025 -- DeepComputing, in collaboration with Framework and powered by ESWIN Computing’s advanced RISC-V multi-purpose intelligent computing SoC EIC7702X—featuring 8 SiFive’s high-performance P550 CPU cores and pre-installed with Ubuntu Desktop 24.04 LTS— proudly announces the availability of the DC-ROMA RISC-V AI PC and AI PC Mini. This early release is dedicated to our loyal and dear RISC-V developer communities, marking a major step forward in RISC-V history on open and local-first AI computing.

Built on the DC-ROMA RISC-V Mainboard II designed specifically for the Framework Laptop, this groundbreaking AI PC is now available on the DeepComputing Store, with prices starting from $349.

DC-ROMA RISC-V AI PC

This launch marks a major milestone for the global developer community, offering the world’s first RISC-V-based AI PC with a RISC-V multi-purpose intelligent computing SoC. Built for developers pioneering edge and AI-native applications, this machine comes pre-installed with Ubuntu Desktop 24.04 LTS (with support for more Linux distributions coming soon). It delivers over 40 TOPS of local AI compute, enabling complex AI models—such as large language models (LLMs)—to run entirely on-device, without relying on the cloud.

DC-ROMA RISC-V AI PC Mini

At its core is a RISC-V 64-bit, 8-core SiFive P550 out-of-order CPU, paired with:

  • A 40 TOPS NPU
  • A 512-bit-wide vector 8-core cluster
  • Hardware support for 8K@50FPS video encoding
  • Support for up to 64GB LPDDR5 memory and NVMe SSD storage

This configuration provides ample power for advanced development, prototyping, and experimentation.

What sets the DC-ROMA AI PC apart is its commitment to local, secure, and private AI execution. Developers can run LLMs and other AI workloads through optimized APIs and open-source toolchains, enabling everything from on-device chatbots and AGI-driven media experiences to audio and video synthesis — all with full control over data, performance, and cost.

DeepComputing and its partners are committed to building an open, modular, and future-ready developer ecosystem. The DC-ROMA AI PC represents the next evolution in sustainable and customizable RISC-V AI computing.

This achievement is the result of a collaboration across both hardware and software ecosystems. John Ronco, SiFive SVP of Product, remarked “This is a powerful product that demonstrates the power of RISC-V open-standard computing as both a development and commercial platform. With 8 of our flexible, high-performance P550 cores, and supported by a strong and growing RISC-V developer ecosystem, the DC-ROMA AI PC will help bring scalable, secure, and efficient AI solutions to life.” Gordan Markuš, Director of Silicon Alliances at Canonical, added: “Canonical is proud to be part of this important step for the RISC-V ecosystem. Together with DeepComputing, Framework, ESWIN Computing, and SiFive, we’re enabling developers to build next-generation AI solutions on RISC-V leveraging Ubuntu and open source software components. This collaboration highlights the strength of the RISC-V ecosystem in uniting companies to jointly shape the future of accessible and open innovation.”

“The DC-ROMA AI PC embodies the innovation and collaboration made possible by the RISC-V ecosystem. It will accelerate new applications, enabling engineers to natively develop code for RISC-V on RISC-V.”Andrea Gallo, CTO of RISC-V International, noted. Nirav Patel, Founder and CEO of Framework, said: “This launch is a powerful demonstration of what’s possible when modular design meets open architecture. We’re happy to see DeepComputing bringing a substantially more powerful RISC-V processor to developers worldwide through the Framework Laptop ecosystem.”

Bo Wang, Vice Chairman of ESWIN Computing, commented: “Our intelligent computing SoC 7702X represents the culmination of deep RISC-V expertise. The collaboration with DeepComputing brings our technology into the hands of real developers solving real-world problems.”

This milestone would not have been possible without the close collaboration of our hardware and software partners, the dedication of open-source contributors, and the growing global community supporting the RISC-V movement. Their collective efforts helped turn the vision of an open, local-first AI PC into a reality. Yuning Liang, Founder and CEO of DeepComputing, stated: “We built this AI PC to empower developers who believe in local-first AI, open innovation, and sustainable computing. It’s a foundational step toward a more open and privacy-respecting digital future.”
