Really quick, I just wanted to add a note that TSMC supplies chips for AMD as well. Ryzen 2, which is AMD’s next generation for CPUs is supposed to be 7nm. The Ryzen+, which is out now, is not 7nm, so Apple’s claim to be the first consumer 7nm CPU to hit the market IS valid. AMD’s next Vega chips will be 10nm, not 7. The GPU’s won’t go 7nm until Navi next year.
