Update:

> Raptor will announce Power10-based hardware very soon

Seems the Power10 claim was not correct either as it's now actually announced to be another CPU called S1 by a chip design company called Solid Silicon:

"Raptor Computing Systems announced it has partnered with US-based Solid Silicon Corporation as its future CPU provider for continued secure, fully open systems and servers [...]. Raptor Computing Systems will be using Solid Silicon S1 CPUs with embedded POWER ISA 3.1-compliant, server class cores as the fully owner-controlled, blob-free successor to its IBM POWER9-powered solutions, with expected availability of systems by late 2024."

Some more statements from Raptor:

"Details will be made public early 2024 [...]. What we can say right now is to expect competitive core performance and overall connectivity, including PCIe Gen 5! Smaller offerings are also in the works for 2025."

"POWER ISA 3.1-compliant server class device [...] will be integrated into upcoming "Talos III" / "Blackbird II" systems, among other potential offerings."

"S1 [...] has DDR5 capability."

"we are focusing more on successors to the Talos / Blackbird with the S1."

"The S1 sits in a physical and power footprint closer to Sforza than LaGrange."
