Notice those big bold words at the start of the article? If completely unverified leaks aren't your piece of cake - it would be best to stop reading now. For the rest of us, however, here is an article full of rumors galore - most of which come courtesy of KittyCorgi over at twitter. The reason why this is tagged a rumor is because this particular account has no history of leaks and has only posted a couple of tweets so far - all of which haven't had the chance to be verified. While all this could turn out to be utter tosh, we did think this was worth covering for the connoisseurs among us. At this point, it might be best to treat this article as an exercise in wish-fulfillment rather than an actual leak.

NVIDIA's upcoming Ampere GPUs have been the subject of their fair share of hype and anticipation. If this particular rumor is to be believed, however, NVIDIA's flagship GPU will have a massive 826mm² die. While the process node was not mentioned, a die this large does slightly increase the probability of it being an older, more mature node like the 12NFF. Depending on how mature TSMC 7nm is, an 826mm² large die isn't totally out of the question for limited quantity runs as well. Previous leaks have pointed out that the company is going to shift to 7nm with Ampere so I would assume that this entire architecture is based on 7nm for the duration of the article.
