What do you all mean by "fabs?" I don't really know what that refers to. Just curious.

Fabrication foundries (commonly called fabs) are the places where the chips are made. AMD like intel used to have them but spun them off and now TMSC makes their chips. AMD  designs them but as a fabless company has to contract a foundry to make it for them.

Oh makes sense.  Thank you for the learning.
