> So... They want to get out of the business of actually making things and just sell IP cores now?
NVIDIA GPUs are fabricated by TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company). NVIDIA never owned its own fab. The only difference is that now instead of keeping their IP cores secret they are willing to license them for a (probably huge) fee. Whoever licenses the core would probably also use TSMC for fabrication.
