They should move to risc-v instead.

That will probably happen eventually, but right now RISC-V only has the hp for embedded or peripheral uses. It will continue to nip at ARM’s heels for the next 5-10 years.

RVA23 chips will definitely be seen next year.

So far, Tenstorrent promises Ascalon devboards for 2026Q2.

Performance should be similar if not above AMD Zen2 or Apple M1.

By 2027, I expect there will be no gap left to close.

And for self-hosting and things like NAS, risc-v is already here.
