If you want to count Apple, it already launched the first consumer 5nm chips built on TSMC’s EUVenhanced N5 node in October 2020. OK, maybe the A14 silicon doesn’t count since it’s not going into anything remotely PC. If that’s your mindset, certainly the A14-derived M1 processor at the heart of the new MacBook line qualifies. Still, we want AMD and Nvidia—and maybe even Intel, if it outsources to TSMC—hardware manufactured on a 5nm node.
