It's been four years since AMD launched RDNA, the successor to the venerable GCN graphics architecture. We take a look through the tech and numbers to see...
I’ve heard that, and it’s plausible. But keep in mind the MCD’s are made on 6nm which AMD isn’t using for CPUs. Also AMD is fabricating some APUs and EPYCs on TSMC 4nm already.
If AMD is suffering from limited wafer supply at 5nm then it absolutely has to adopt a lower volume, higher performance crown targeting approach to its GPU designs. Regardless of whatever the supply is today, wafer supply in the future is not going to be improving as everyone and everything funnels into the same future TSMC node groups.
