The 'Made in Malaysia' markings will remain, though.
Earlier this month, news emerged that AMD has removed all markings that mention that its chips are manufactured in Taiwan from its consumer Ryzen 7000 desktop PC processors, a move largely thought to be a reaction to demands from the People's Republic of China. *️⃣ The 'Made in' marking denotes the location where the die is placed into the chip package and then tested (OSAT) -- i.e., mounted on a substrate (PCB) and then covered with the lid (IHS - Integrated Heat Spreader). The 'Diffused in Taiwan' line is now simply omitted from the top of the processor, while the rest of the text is not re-aligned to close the gap.
