  • “Fabless” means the company doesn’t own the fabrication facility. They design a processor but it’s manufactured in another company’s facility, usually TSMC or Samsung. ARM64 is a modern processor architecture that is more power-efficient and is used in all smartphones, newer apple macs, and many servers. About 20% and growing of servers are on ARM64, the remaining ones are on amd64/x86_64, based on Intel’s legacy x86. Intel will have less and less influence with big companies that no longer buy their processors due to using ARM64. The home and office PC market continues to use amd64 processors made by either AMD or Intel, mostly because the majority of PC software doesn’t support ARM64.
