Immediately warning that these are rumors, the source said that TSMC had secretly built a 3nm production line to fulfill Intel's huge order, and that TSMC and Apple are jointly conducting R&D on the 2nm process.

TSMC is said to have received a lot of orders for 3nm products. While observers focused on TSMC's Nanke-18 plant, where 3nm pilot production was being deployed, TSMC quietly shifted the focus of its advanced process deployment to Hsinchu. This is where most of the 3nm equipment will be located.

According to the source, the transfer of the center for the implementation of the new technical process is associated with the placement of a huge order from Intel for the release of processors. It is not yet known if these processors are intended for servers or PCs.

The message also confirms previously published information about the cooperation between TSMC and Apple in terms of research and development related to the development of 2 nm standards.
