The SoC die is 18A the iGPU is 18AP as for cancellation of 4+0 unlikely cause it succeds 4+0+4 PTL SKUs.

I didn't mean cancelled such as nothing would replace it. I meant like what happened with Arrow Lake, where the bottom end die on Intel 20A was cancelled and replaced by TSMC version of the same die.

Tbh ARL was always planned to be N3B it wasn't until 2021-22 they decided to have 20A variant than they had a record quarter.

Why would Nvidia do this?

1. Appease Trump

2. Keep Intel alive as a potential fab to negotiate better prices from TSMC

3. It's a way to test Intel 14A without fully committing. If their iGPU port to 14A does well, they might considering moving more of their chips over.

4. They want to put RTX in as many devices as possible to counter Qualcomm, AMD, and Apple. They want AI inferencing to work on an RTX GPU, integrated or not.

This. Quickest way would be to partner with Intel. Kill 3 birds with one stone.

I hope Intel is not as dumb cause inference market is pretty much game on right now unlike training
