$620 is way too expensive for this CPU and mobo.

If it would cost under $100 for CPU and motherboard, it can be used as budget PC. With current prices, I don't see a reason.

Considering it's aimed for Chinese market, China can basically put higher tax on AMD and INTEL CPUs and force Chinese consumer to purchase national product.

Russian and Chinese government hate the idea of not having enough control over Intel Management Engine which is a small portion of the CPU with its own OS doing whatever.
Same goes for AMD with their PSP.
So, last year Russian federation announced a partnership with Chinese government developing their own OS Linux based and having also a hardware platform for it, they are separating themselves from whole world as in consuming what Intel and Microsoft are offering.
Please, don't turn this in a political statement.

To support the motherland and not pay the Muricans? It would be good if the Chinese government would fusion all CPU maker, instead of having more like VIA/this/AMDcopyone/etc. So in this way, with via having x86 they could develop and provide improvements for it, to be a worthy opponent for AMD/Intel

Understood. I just lost my thoughts at this price tag I supposed it was more than what it is. But if there is a reasoning behind that move, either political or a fight against tech giants in a land with full quarter of humanity, I can see its point.
