I dunno. Fujitsu's A64FX has incredible specifications.

Fujitsu's A64FX is 7nm-class, and has those SVE extensions for incredible throughput. It is expected to be in several supercomputers soon.

I expect that the A64FX is the fastest ARM in the world.

The Huawei specs are still a bit to limited for a full comparison, but it does use the same process.

The big questions involve how Huawei's 8 DDR4 channels compare to Fujitsu's 4 HBM2 banks, how Huawei's 64 cores compare to Fujitsu's 48.

Even if their IP is worse, they seem to have brute-forced their way to the top.
