1.So you disagree that AMD works with the fabs, that they choose certain types of transistor/libraries to optimize their design for low power/high frequency and so on in order for AMD to optimize their design for any given process?

2.As for supplier, that's ultimately irrelevant to the entire prior point. If you think Samsung/TSMC/Global Foundries only offered 14/16nm and that is it... Then you are highly mistaken.
There is still options, just options that aren't acceptable to AMD. - I am just wondering, what is your point?


3.According to 2016 information... Vega was supposed to launch in 2017, with a refresh in 2018.

And the information was that AMD was attempting to launch in 2016 if they could get their Vega ducks in a row... But that was a rumor.

1.Not at all, of course they are optimizing the design for their needs, just like Sony,MS and all other customers do.  Simply they are more in the Sony with Playstation scheme, or MS with Xbox if we talk about actual production, than lets say " AMD creates" anything, thats all. I am just fucking precision guy, ye they tell me it every day.

 

2. Where exactly did I said anything like that ? Common sense is that next gens will hit 7nm, the APUS will be delivered by AMD, so, TSCM is the only option.

3.There are many plans and information from AMD and they kinda change overtime, but hey, have it your way
