During a press conference on Monday, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang expressed confidence in the success of Samsung Electronics’ high-bandwidth memory (HBM), which is currently undergoing testing.
At a global press briefing held at the Fontainebleau Hotel in Las Vegas amid the world’s largest IT and consumer electronics exhibition, Huang stated, “The fact that Samsung will supply HBM is as certain as tomorrow is Wednesday.”
HBM, a high-value and high-performance product, revolutionizes data processing speeds by vertically stacking multiple DRAM chips. This technology significantly outperforms traditional DRAM. SK Hynix currently holds an exclusive position as NVIDIA’s HBM supplier. Samsung Electronics is reportedly testing its 5th generation HBM product, the HBM3E, in both 8-layer and 12-layer configurations for potential supply to NVIDIA.
