AMD Radeon RX 7000 Series “RDNA 3” GPUs to Use Mixture of 5- and 6-Nanometer Process Nodes

Some of AMD’s next-generation Radeon GPUs will be built on not one, but two types of process nodes, according to information shared in the LinkedIn profile of a member of AMD’s Infinity Data Fabric Silicon design team. As noted under a project listing, Navi 31 and Navi 32 GPUs will be produced on 5- and 6-nanometer nodes, adding credence to previous rumors that suggested AMD’s Radeon RX 7000 Series will comprise both monolithic and multi-chip module (MCM) designs. The weakest GPU in the series, Navi 33, is only listed with a single process (6 nm), which implies that the flagship and other higher-performing models will be MCM-based.

I'm not surprised by this. Don't they already do this with their ryzen line of CPU's?

It could also just mean that some of the cards are 5, others are 6. Doesn't necessarily mean there will be multi-chip versions. The new 6500 is on 6nm after all, and that would also match a description similar to this for RDNA2 (produced on 7 and 6nm process lines)

End result is more important of course.
A 14nm gpu would be fantastic if fast enough, cheap enough and available enough. Ever going , ever needing more advanced processes denies all 3.
