AMD could beat Nvidia to launching AI GPUs on the cutting-edge 2nm node — Instinct MI450 is officially the first AMD GPU to launch with TSMC's finest tech

AMD is set to launch its Instinct MI450 GPUs based on the CDNA 5 architecture using TSMC's cutting-edge 2nm fabrication technology, a first for the company in AI GPUs. The move to the 2nm node is expected to give AMD a competitive edge against Nvidia's upcoming Rubin GPUs, which will be based on TSMC's N3 technology. The new node promises significant performance improvements and efficiency gains, potentially allowing AMD to introduce innovative features in its new GPUs. AMD's partnership with OpenAI for the deployment of Instinct MI450 GPUs signifies a major validation of its AI architectures and data center solutions.
