Summary
According to a post on X by @rohanpaul_ai, Nvidia wants a fourth advanced-memory supplier beyond Samsung, SK Hynix and Micron, and TSMC is reportedly drafting 3D DRAM plans. The post says this request builds on Nvidia's reported push for TSMC 3nm base dies on custom HBM, which would let Nvidia shift orders during shortages. The post frames memory supply and pricing, not only GPU wafers, as the bottleneck Nvidia is trying to break. The item is a social post relaying reports, and the snippet does not include independent confirmation.

What happened
Rohan Paul expands the TSMC 3D DRAM thread: Nvidia wants a fourth advanced-memory supplier beyond Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron, and TSMC is reportedly drafting 3D DRAM plans. The ask builds on Nvidia’s reported push for TSMC 3nm base dies on custom HBM so it can shift orders during shortages. Why it matters:...
Why it matters
For AI chip builders and buyers, memory supply can limit how much accelerator capacity is available, so a wider supplier base could matter. The reported plans would involve TSMC, a chip foundry, alongside the existing memory makers Samsung, SK Hynix and Micron. Watch for official confirmation of TSMC's 3D DRAM plans and any statements on supplier changes.
