Summary:Samsung Electronics has begun producing contract chips using its 14-nanometre FinFET process for an unspecified client, a
top executive has said.

99% BAD HARDWARE WEEK: Well, 14nm is only marketing shrink. DPT ArFi could etch fins at Samsung transistors, BUT NOT IT'S HALF PITCH smaller than 27nm. :)
Thus, consider it as low power version of 22nm node.
