Yup. Here it is:

Haven’t noticed this article yet, is it up on the site?

Yup on the greater sign. Thanks for the catch.

Look at the Slide at AMD Finical Analysts Day and you will see that “>” symbol in front of the 15% so that reads Greater Than 15%. But If AMD does not dust of its Project K12 Custom ARM core that Jim Keller/K12 Team designed then expect that AMD will get pushed out after a while from the Handheld Gaming Devices market by Qualcomm and it’s Nuvia Custom ARM core engineers and Nuvia was founded by former Apple A/M series SOC engineers so AMD better have retained the Verilog for K12 and be preparing for the Future of the handheld gaming market where AMD currently has sold a lot of x86 based APUs. But watch out for ARM there on the higher end from Qualcomm if in fact they can field a very wide order superscalar custom ARM core similar to Apple’s A14/Firestorm core and Nuvia’s engineers have some experience there in that process. And ARM in the server market is not slowing down so AMD had better give up on any x86 duopoly fixation and get back to development for ARM, or even RISC-V, and as for handheld gaming ARM processors have the better battery life and even if AMD’s got some market for x86 there AMD needs to thank the Gods that Apple has not launched a handheld Like the Steam Deck with Apple’s A14, or A15, processor inside. Watch out for Qualcomm in the Laptop space and ARM based processors there sometime in 2023/later time frame!
