In theory this architecture should enable graphics three times more powerful than those of the recently launched AMD Radeon RX 6000.
Taiwanese chipmaker TSMC confirmed today that mass production of chips with the 3-nanometer architecture will begin in the second half of 2022. According to the company this architecture will contain nearly 250 million transistors per 1 square millimeter of processor that means they are 2.5 times denser than the 10-nanometer architecture where Intel has stalled.

TSMC is the company that makes AMD Ryzen processors and Radeon graphics. Until recently it also produced NVIDIA graphics. TSMC advancements in 3-nanometer are very significant as many chip manufacturers rely on the company.
Intel's 10-nanometer architecture currently contains 100 million transistors for mm2 while the TSMC 7-nanometer processor contains approximately 113 million transistors for mm2.
