Are there no any EU alternative to those gaming hardware company? If we start now making GPU and CPU from scratch, how far behind are we?

Somebody could try poking imagination technologies into releasing a powervr based GPU for the PC. They haven't done that since the Kyro 2 in 2001. Been very active in mobile, they powered apple phones for a long time and still pay them licence fees for their home grown tech.

There might be incentive for that now? They totally could especially if some mass shifts to Linux.

Dxvk also makes life monumentally easier for them, in terms of backwards compatibility, and that wasn’t always a good option until recently.

I can't help but think their tile based rendering would be a perfect fit for a chiplet design, making multiple compute chiplets a natural way of doing implementing it with the architecture.
