According to a report published by THE CHOSUN Daily, Samsung and TSMC are vying for supremacy with the upcoming mass production of second-generation 3 nm GAA (Gate-All-Around) process. The gigantic South Korean multinational manufacturing conglomerate is alleged to be courting potential clients—insider information points to a trial run of second-generation 3 nm process prototypes: "(the foundry is) currently testing the chip's performance and reliability, Samsung aims to achieve a yield of over 60 percent for the 3 nm second-generation process within the next six months, as set by the company's internal goals." The likes of NVIDIA, Qualcomm and AMD are mentioned in the article—it will take a lot of effort to attract these high-profile customers away from TSMC.
