I think that Intel is using TSMC because Intel having issues with their smaller process nodes. It probably helps that their lead GPU guy, Raja Koduri[0], worked at ATI (later AMD), so he's familiar with how TSMC does things (because TSMC has manufactured all of ATI/AMD's GPUs).

And you get a nice bonus that every wafer Intel buys can't be used by AMD/Nvidia.
