What Hacker News says

Many of the underlying IP areas of RISK-V advanced features are not public implementations. Yet there are still a lot of great projects around, that may end up in China grey market chip fabs (C950) at some point. https://github.com/vortexgpgpu/vortex ARM64/AArch64 is about constrained consistency, but most RISCV standards groups still fail to recognize their ISA version fragmentation was a serious mistake. So no, it won't exist outside niche use-cases until the kids stop arguing over what RISCV even means in a general end-user context (BOOM flags, RVA23, etc.) =3
In RISC-V Is Inevitable: State of the Union Keynote Argues
there have been quite a few threads about "reasonably priced" FPGA platforms and https://github.com/vortexgpgpu/vortex/blob/master/docs/fpga_... will interest you, but regrettably I haven't ever tried to use an FPGA to speak to whether their verilog only targets one of them, or "bring your own," and for sure I'm not the right person to speak to how much such a stunt would cost It would make for a helluva blog post, though, or set up a shopify selling pre-made ones for people like you :-)
