Is there a RISC-V chip with SIMD available for purchase with roughly comparable price/performance to current Intel/AMD offerings?


If you specifically prefer SIMD over Vector, Andes has offerings with draft P extension.

If you otherwise want vector (V extension), "right now" would limit you to pre-1.0 V extension implementations.

If you need to license hardware IP, there are several very high performance implementations as of RISC-V Summit[0]. Actual hardware will pop up throughout 2023.
