NVIDIA reportedly wants to cut TSMC orders for next-gen RTX 40 GPUs 5nm wafers amid lower demand

Hopefully not, least not at launch. When Ampere launch happened, Crypto wasn't initially booming either. It was after a couple months when people realized how good the mining capabilities are is when the boom happened. Before that though, we had all the scalper BS.

Since both AMD (CPUs) and NVidia (GPUs) are apparently reducing the number of wafers they're ordering, this might become beneficial for the consoles and other consumer products which are still very supply constrained by the chip crunch. Would be nice if this would end the chip crunch as a whole...
