It’s a big day for processors folks. TSMC has officially commented 7nm production for GPUs and mobile processors. The fab’s CEO, CC Wei spoke at its technology Synopsium held in Taiwan. Wei outlined details for the node and which products it will be used in. The process will also mark a strong lead for TSMC over Samsung, which outlined details for its 7nm EUV only yesterday.

In fact, as reported earlier as well, Qualcomm just might shift to TSMC for the first generation of 7nm processors. While Samsung claims to enter mass production for 7nm on EUV next year, TSMC’s already branding its first generation die reduction from 10nm as 7nm and looks like Qualcomm cares about market appearances more than anything else. However, all this still doesn’t make up for the big news of the day.
