The ASML machines that make Nvidia GeForce gaming GPUs, as well as AMD Ryzen CPUs, in TSMC factories, could be switched off remotely.

    I sure hope so!

    I’d much rather keep my 3070 and have Taiwan remain free than get a new card made in occupied territories under terrible conditions.

      You won’t get the latter. The PLA will have dibs on fab capacity for military use, assuming they can stop the west from bricking the lithography machines.

        Eh all the workers has to do to significantly delay production if not outright make the facility unusable to the Chinese is to flood them with sea/lake water.

    Oh no! Not my GPUs! That’s the real issue here, not all the death!

      The whole point of the silicone shield policy is that ALL Taiwanese semi-conductor manufacturing will stop if Taiwan is invaded. I don’t know why they specifically call out Nvidia GPUs. It’s not like we will have a lot of time for gaming if WWIII starts.

      edit: oh the article is written by pcgamesn.com. That makes more sense.
