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.

So is amd going straight to 14nm :o or stopping at 20nm for a while and then full steam ahead with 14. Seems like everyone is ready to just drop 20 :D

This is known for extremely long time. AMD is paying to GloFo money every year for manufacturing of APU if they take them or not.
They have made update to deal that they will take more goods (more money for GloFo) but this now includes GPUs.
Did anyone think AMD is dumb or what?

GloFo is on the rise kind of atm and doing joint work with samsung towards 14nm is a good thing.

I dont think 14nm FinFet will be ready for high performance (HP) processors on the end of 2015..

20nm > 16nm Finfet.. or maybe they are able to go quickler to 16nm than with TSMC..
