GPU Shortage Unlikely to be Solved Before May

DigiTimes, citing anonymous industry sources, claims that the current shortage of graphics chips is because of low 40nm yields at TSMC and the problem is unlikely to be remedied before May.

Although TSMC recently said the defect density of its 40nm technology has already dropped from 0.3-0.4 per square inch to 0.1-0.3, the sources pointed out that the improvement in overall yield still needs more time before catching up with market demand.
