It's just a fud article that's simping to glorify Apple as an almighty company. AMD already has 5nm capacity booked with TSMC but for this year. The reality is AMD isn't ready to go 5nm just yet. They have yet to even launch the 7nm Zen 3 Ryzens and have at least a year until they would want to even start phasing in initial 5nm products.

Right. And I’m sure a lot of the money pouring into TSMC will be reinvested into increasing their 5nm capacity and yields. In a year or two I’m sure we’ll see AMD move to 5nm as well, and TSMC have capacity for everyone. And if they don’t, Samsung isn’t far behind.
This is the kind of situation market dynamics excel at. The next few years of CPUs in all our devices are going to be fantastic.
