Even if it was unrestricted, x86 is incredibly difficult to optimize well. Most of the people who know how to do it already work at Intel or AMD. Actually, they might all work at AMD.

They definitely don't work at VIA, which is the forgotten third company that makes x86 chips. Forgotten for a reason.

Now, Nvidia has a big pile of cash and can solve the problem that way. More likely, though, they'll use ARM like they have been.
