Designs CPUs and GPUs for PCs, servers and AI data centers, competing head-to-head with Intel and Nvidia.
Designs chips and relies on TSMC to make them. Sells server processors to cloud companies, accelerators to data centers and PC chips to PC makers, and also supplies the processors inside Sony and Microsoft game consoles. The 2022 purchase of Xilinx added its programmable-chip line.
Moat: narrow (IP / patents, process know-how, customer qualification). x86 license plus TSMC leading-edge access lets it compete on performance, but Nvidia leads on AI software.
