According to the report Samsung’s aim is to secure both CPU and GPU IP from AMD. Then use the IP to fuel future growth opportunities as well as put itself in a more favorable position to compete against its equally large rival Intel and its smaller but still very successful mobile rival Qualcomm.

Yeah it would only be a good thing imho.

Maxwell was made to scale from mobile low power use to desktop GPU's. Maybe Samsung could develop something awesome with AMD that could scale mobile to desktop as well.

Samsung as a brand might have more pull as well. Might be what ATI/AMD need to keep going gain strong market share..
