GDDR6

Almost exactly a year ago Samsung introduced GDDR6, which was capable of transmitting 24Gbps per pin. Now the company has completed the design of the next gen in graphics RAM dubbed GDD7. This one goes up to 32Gbps per pin for a total of 1.5 Terabytes per second, 40% faster than the 1.1 Terabytes per second that GDDR6 could achieve. The increase in speed is due to the adoption of 3-level Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM3). PAM3 is also used in USB4 and Thunderbolt 5, for example. GDDR6X used in cards like the Nvidia…

Micron has just announced that some of the best graphics cards might soon receive a considerable boost — and this announcement couldn’t have come at a better time. According to Micron, the next-gen GDDR7 memory standard is expected to launch in the first half of 2024. Will this address the growing concerns regarding VRAM limitations, or will it simply contribute to the ongoing rise in GPU prices? Micron While GDDR6/GDDR6X are the current video memory standards in graphics cards, it’s time to move on — the tech has…

In a rather unexpected move, Nvidia introduced (opens in new tab) its new flagship graphics card for the professional visualization market and its new GeForce RTX 40-series graphics boards (opens in new tab) for gamers. The new Nvidia RTX 6000 48GB carries almost the name of its predecessor (opens in new tab), yet this is an all-new Proviz solution based on the Ada Lovelace architecture.Nvidia says that its RTX 6000 graphics card with 48GB of GDDR6 ECC memory onboard will offer up to 2X – 4X the performance of the…

Nvidia RTX A2000 graphics card is the latest and smallest GPU to join the company's workstation graphics card portfolio. Its low-profile design allows it to be fitted into a small form factor case without compromising on latest features such as GDDR6 error correction code (ECC) memory, PCIe Gen 4 support, and more. Nvidia's own version has a blower-style design with a single fan pulling air through the GPU. Nvidia RTX A2000 is designed on the Ampere architecture-based CUDA cores.Nvidia RTX A2000 price, availabilityNvidia…

Samsung Electronics revealed today it started sampling the industry’s first 16-gigabit Graphics Double Data Rate 6 DRAM with 24 Gbps processing speeds. It is built on the 10 nm EUV process technology and is expected to boost performance of laptop and console GPUs. The new DRAM chip will offer universal compatibility so it can have broad market adoption among graphics unit manufacturers. Samsung GDDR6 DRAM Engineers at Suwon, Samsung HQ, developed an innovative circuit design and a highly advanced…

Cho Mu-Hyun / ZDNet: Samsung says it has developed a new GDDR6 DRAM with a 24Gbps data transfer rate, 30% faster than its 18Gbps predecessor, built on its 10nm process using EUV — The new DRAM will allow premium graphics cards to support a data processing rate of up to 1.1TB, Samsung says.

Samsung, the world’s biggest memory chip maker, has unveiled the world’s first 24Gbps GDDR6 DRAM chips. These semiconductor memory chips are made using the 10nm EUV fabrication process. The company said that it has already started sampling 16Gb GDDR6 DRAM chips. The South Korean firm’s new GDDR6 DRAM is made for high-performance GPUs that are used in gaming PCs, gaming laptops, and gaming consoles. The new chips use the HKMG (High-K Metal Gate) material to minimize current leakage. Samsung claims its 24Gbps GDDR6 DRAM…

Samsung said on Thursday that it has developed a new GDDR6 (graphics double data rate) DRAM with a data transfer rate of 24 gigabits per second (Gbps).A premium graphics card that packs the chips will support a data processing rate of up to 1.1 terabytes (TB), equivalent to processing 275 movies in Full HD resolution within a second, the South Korean tech giant said.Samsung said the DRAM was comprised of 16Gb chips using its third-generation 10nm process node, which also incorporates extreme ultraviolet (EUV)…

PowerColor has quietly added Radeon RX 6700 non-XT graphics cards into its lineup of products (and no matter how quiet the listing was, @momomo_us discovered it earlier today). The board is aimed at mid-range gaming systems, is based on a cut-down Navi 22 XL graphics processor and features 10GB of GDDR6 and a 160-bit memory bus.  PowerColor's Fighter Radeon RX 6700 closely resembles the company's Fighter Radeon RX 6700 XT, which is not surprising as both use the same Navi 22 GPU. However, in the case of the new board,…

Nvidia's Turing microarchitecture is a little long in the tooth. Still, the chipmaker isn't ready to leave isn't behind. According to VideoCardz, Nvidia will reportedly give Turing the last ride in the shape of the GeForce GTX 1630, rumored to launch on May 31.The GeForce GTX 1630 would mark the first time that Nvidia has relinquished the GTX branding to a lower-tier SKU. The x30-series, such as the GT 730 or GT 1030 models, have typically assumed the GT moniker. The model name alone is enough to tell you that the…
