So you're already talking as much as...
meta spends on NVIDIA gear in a year in just the GPUs add on top of that the networking add on top of that the CPUs and obviously it feels like an extension it feels like a bigger commitment to NVIDIA but they wouldn't say for sure.

The key thing to look at is this is Intel's territory.
This is AMD's territory, the general purpose processor for a data center that...

That's a market extension for them if we see widespread adoption.
