AMD's Vega 20 - the GPU powering the Radeon Instinct MI60 - is the world's first 7nm GPU.

Footnotes are very important. They can reveal information that is vital to interpreting the metrics on display and sometimes they can also reveal caveats hidden in plain sight. AMD recently launched the world’s first 7nm GPU, the Radeon Instinct MI60, and it is a milestone in the ongoing transformation of AMD’s professional GPU side. The specifications are great and the performance spectacular, but the efforts put in by engineers might be overshadowed by something hidden in the footnotes. NVIDIA’s Tesla V100 GPU was gimped in the ResNet 50 benchmark.
