AMD will manufacture GPUs at Global Foundries

AMD will manufacture GPUs at Global Foundries

In our previous post about 16nm TCSM we've been wondering as to why AMD was not on the 16nm fab list, whereas other players like Nvidia have been named. The answer just came to us though, AMD will manufacture their GPU at Global Foundries. Global Foundries has made great progress claims Devinder Kumar from AMD at an investor meeting.

AMD sold Global Foundries in 2008 to raise cash in difficult times, Kumar stated that they will still fab 'some' products at 20nm and from there on-wards it will move to Finfet-chips. Gobalfoundries is working together with Samsung on 14nm already, Samsung will launch with SoCs based on that fab node next year already.

Finfets have a bigger surface area which helps switching faster for the transistors. Finfet chips are more power efficient, smaller and cheaper to manufacture.

It's unclear of AMD will remain partner of TSMC.

Is this good or bad? i thought AMD was royally screwed hard by glofo.


GF has missed their deadlines many times and seems to perpetually be in last place so unless samsung is bailing them out dont put too much faith in em.

While Nvidia is stuck at 28nm next year, AMD will be on 20nm? The next year after that when Nvidia starts production on 16nmFinFET, AMD with the help of Samsung will start production on the 14nm process?


Nvidia stuck at 28nm next year? Where did you read that "nonsense"?

Nvidia is going to use TSMC's 16nm FinFET and therefore will probably skip 20nm.
TSMC talked to the Dutch ASML for manufacturing equipment. It's expected that the first chips arrive somewhere mid 2015.

ps: yes, I did make an account for this post :)

Ah who knows what's what anymore. so much is being said . But till i see one high performance 14 nm finfet on a AMD or Nvidia then it should all be taken with a grain of salt. Global F. Does not have a very good track record!
