Samsung was cheap. If they had gone TSMC you can expect to have seen much higher prices than Ampere on Samsung.
I know many think it's Nvidia just being greedy but it really isn't. And yeah, I never EVER rush to defend Nvidia but the more people demand from GPUs (and get) the more it's going to cost. It really is as simple as that.
There is a reason why Ray Tracing was never attempted in gaming much before.
That is why I really can't see AMD's GPUs costing a penny less than their equivalents TBH. So as dumb as Samsung sounded? one thing it will do is put a lot of pressure on AMD with pricing, because in that area they really don't want to compete.
