The gap has been getting smaller every year, and thanks to stagnation from amd and Intel, it’s nonexistent in the consumer and business market. Chinas consumer grade CPUs are on the same performance as five year old chips, roughly speaking. Most people don’t upgrade their CPUs that often and genuinely don’t need to these days.
The biggest difference is in cuda-like and similar chips, but thanks to ridiculous levels of foreign investment that gap is also narrowing.
The Linux kernel already supports them by the way.
China has been planning for a us led export ban on all computer components for three decades now, since Clinton originally started talking about it. There’s a reason Taiwan is still allowed to be an autonomous region, and it’s not because China thinks it would damage the chip fabs during an invasion.
