[QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 48004, member: 636"] Samsung gave up trying to beat TSMC at making the world's smallest computer chips. The Korean company decided to focus on making money instead of chasing impossible dreams. Samsung's chip-making division has been losing massive amounts of cash for years. Their fancy 3nm technology looked great on paper but failed to work properly most of the time. Company bosses finally admitted they cannot win the speed race against their Taiwanese rival. The Korean giant will delay their 1.4nm chip technology until 2029. Samsung originally planned to launch this advanced process much earlier. Company leaders want to perfect their current 2nm technology first. They believe fixing existing problems makes more sense than rushing ahead. Samsung's foundry division keeps bleeding money with each failed attempt at cutting-edge manufacturing. Samsung will spend time improving older chip technologies like 4nm and 5nm processes. These proven methods still have huge demand from customers around the world. Many companies prefer reliable older technology over experimental new processes. Samsung hopes to earn steady profits from these established manufacturing techniques. The strategy represents a complete change from their previous aggressive approach. TSMC will release their 1.4nm technology during 2028, beating Samsung by one full year. The Taiwanese company continues dominating the most advanced chip manufacturing market. Samsung's retreat leaves TSMC alone at the top of the technology ladder. Industry experts think Samsung made a smart business decision. Focusing on profits might save their struggling foundry business from complete disaster. [/QUOTE]
