AMD recently teased a ~15% single threaded performance increase for Zen4 when they will move from TSMC 7nm to TSMC 5nm.

Apple just teased ~18% CPU increase while staying on TSMC 5nm.

Sounds like they are doing just fine.

AMD stated >15%, not ~15%, and this was the worst-case, conservative number, as they have clarified.

The increased core frequency alone brings in around that number already.
