Samsung has 8nm, but Nvidia has had a bit of a rocky ride on it as it was not tuned for large die area chips, but rather small Exynos SoCs.

- monocasa 6y agoSure, but that's only a cute hack due to Apple bidding to eat up literally all of the TSMC 5nm capacity. I'm sure Nvidia would prefer TSMC 5nm to Samsung 8nm if they could put their hands on it.
- posguy 6y agoNvidia bit the hand that fed them (TSMC) hence not using TSMC 7nm or 5nm. Turns out complaining publicly about your manufacturing partner year after year causes them to allocate their wafer starts to your competition (AMD, Apple, etc).
