ISLAMABAD. JULY 31: SK Hynix, a major memory manufacturer in Korea, is preparing to start mass producing its new, lightning-fast GDDR7 memory chips this summer.
In optimal circumstances, these devices can transport data at rates of up to 40 gigabits per second. These circuits can handle enormous volumes of data when linked with strong graphics cards, which speeds up and smooths out graphics-intensive applications like gaming. Compared to the previous generation’s 1.1TB, these memory chips will be able to transport data at a rate of 1.5TB per second.
Additionally, SK Hynix has improved the energy efficiency of its new GDDR7 processors. Compared to the earlier chips, they have reduced power consumption by more than 50%. A novel package design with additional heat-dissipating layers was used to accomplish this. This made it possible to reduce heat resistance by 74% while maintaining the same physical dimensions.
Although the term “GDDR” implies that these chips are intended for graphics cards, the manufacturer thinks there may be further uses for them. These chips, according to SK Hynix, will be helpful for supercomputers, artificial intelligence, enhanced computer graphics, and self-driving cars. This is from Sangkwon Lee, SK Hynix’s Head of DRAM Product Planning & Enablement.
