It's TSMC N6. What does that information benefit you? We're still talking about a boutique chip that's not going to outperform anything from the past decade's worth of amd64 products.

Because process affects performance per watt more than architecture so its a useful data point.

Even knowing nothing about performance, knowing that it is N6 means it probably isnt particularly power efficient (as compared to leading edge x86/ARM).
