Yea ive been thinking about this for a few years. The Mx series’s chip would sell into data centers like crazy if apple went after that market. Especially if they created a server tuned chip. It could probably be their 2nd biggest product line behind the iphone. The performance and efficiency is awesome. I guess it would be meat to see some web serving and database benchmarks to really know.

TSMC couldn’t make enough at the leading node in addition to all the iPhone chips Apple has to sell. There’s a physical thoughput limit. That’s why this isn’t M4.
