# Samsung delays 1.4nm chip node to 2029, plans High-NA EUV for 2030

*2026-08-12 · Source: [Tom's Hardware](https://www.tomshardware.com/tech-industry/samsung-foundry-updates-process-roadmap-to-move-1-4nm-node-to-2029-high-na-euv-will-enable-1nm-class-and-smaller-nodes-in-2030-and-beyond)*

Samsung Foundry has pushed its 1.4nm-class process node back to 2029, extending the life of its current SF2 node well beyond typical cycles. The company plans to bring in High-NA EUV lithography around 2030 to enable 1nm-class and smaller chips.

**Why it matters:** Slower node progress at Samsung, one of the few foundries capable of leading-edge chip production, narrows the field competing with TSMC for next-generation AI accelerator manufacturing. That could affect pricing and availability of advanced AI chips later this decade.
