But that's not the only AMD related news today:

TSMC obtains orders from AMD and Nvidia for 16nm FinFET chips

(source: Kitguru / Digitimes)

"Advanced Micro Devices plans to use both 14nm FinFET and 16nm FinFET process technologies for its products due next year. It is believed that the company will order 14nm microprocessors from GlobalFoundries" (for its Zen processors), "whereas TSMC will concentrate on manufacturing of next-generation AMD Radeon graphics processing units code-named “Greenland” and other using 16nm FinFET process."

 

Also, there are some rumors suggesting that, because TSMC has lost Qualcom (who has gone with Samsung) and some orders from Apple (who has split their orders between them and Samsung), there's a chance that Nvidia and AMD will be able to get their chips manufactured before that what they had planned, so the launch of the new cards could be a little sooner.
