Apparently AMD still had a Wafer Supply Agreement, last renegotiated in may, that may be a bit weird indeed... See here : https://www.hpcwire.com/2021/05/13/amd

My understading is that AMD only used said contract for the I/O part of their chips or some entry level GPUs, as they moved the CPU cores to TMSC. I'm unclear on their current APU lineup.
- paulmd 5y agoAMD is also rumored to be backporting Zen3 and RDNA2 to GloFo 12+ for some low-end APU products, presumably due to cost - TSMC 7nm is quite expensive which makes it less appropriate for a certain segment of price-sensitive products. https://videocardz.com/newz/amd-monet-12nm-zen3-apu-and-bergamo-epyc-128-core-cpu-make-an-appearance-in-latest-rumors https://videocardz.com/newz/amd-monet-12nm-zen3-apu-and-berg...
