You can't do shakedowns for your second best customer. Nvidia works also with Samsung for new 3nm nodes.
Prices are defined by the profit margins of Nvidia's closest competitor (AMD 4.89%.)
- TheAlchemist 2y agoWhy not ? Nvidia may be working with Samsung, but they don't have any alternative for now. So my understanding is, that TSMC currently has the monopoly on producing Nvidia chips, and Nvidia obviously has the monopoly on selling those chips. And somehow, Nvidia is extracting 99% of profits from that situation, while TSMC is getting close to nothing. My understanding of game theory is that it should be way closer to an even split. Could you elaborate on why the prices are defined by AMD margins ? I'm obviously missing something, but can't see what.
