Ekupheleni kukaNovemba, i-VIA yamemezela ngokungalindelekile ukuthi inkampani engaphansi kwayo i-Centaur yayisebenza kuphrosesa entsha ye-x86, leyo, ngokusho kwenkampani, iyi-CPU yokuqala eneyunithi ye-AI eyakhelwe ngaphakathi. Namuhla i-VIA yabelane ngemininingwane yezakhiwo zangaphakathi zephrosesa. Ngokunembayo, amaphrosesa, ngoba amayunithi e-AI ashiwo abe ama-CPU angu-16-core VLIW CPU aneziteshi ezimbili ezizimele ze-DMA zokufinyelela inkumbulo.
Ngokungeziwe kumprosesa we-AI, iphrosesa ye-Centaur yesikhathi esizayo izoba nama-cores angu-8 x86 asekela wonke amasethi eziyalezo zesimanje, okuhlanganisa i-AVX-512; Ngaphezu kwalokho, ukusekelwa kwezandiso ze-vector kuthembisa ukuba ngenye yezithuthuke kakhulu emakethe. Umkhiqizo omusha unesilawuli sememori eneziteshi ezine, usekelo lwemizila engama-44 PCIe 3.0 kanye nobuchwepheshe obuthile bokuxhuma amasistimu ane-CPU engaphezu kweyodwa. Iphrosesa izokhiqizwa kusetshenziswa ubuchwepheshe benqubo ye-TSMC 16FFC (16 nm); abathuthukisi bakhuluma ngamaza azungeze i-2,5 GHz. Umkhiqizo omusha ubekwe njengomuntu oqhudelana naye kumamodeli okuqala e-Intel Xeon, i-AMD EPYC, kanye namaphrosesa weseva ayanda ngokuthandwa anezakhiwo ze-ARM. Ama-prototype asebenzayo asevele ekhona, kodwa ukulethwa kufanele kulindelwe engxenyeni yesibili ka-2020.
