With one of the biggest booths at the CIIE’s Intelligent Industry & Information Technology section, Samsung featured its GDDR7 chip, touted as one of the world’s most advanced memory products for graphics processing, as well as the HBM3E, which is designed for high-performance computing applications and artificial intelligence (AI) development projects.
SK Hynix, meanwhile, showcased its CXL Memory Module-DDR5, a dynamic random access memory (DRAM) product that can increase bandwidth by up to 50 per cent and expand capacity by up to 100 per cent for modern computing and storage systems.
The high-profile exhibition of the two South Korean tech firms at the CIIE reflects the vast demand for memory products in the world’s second-largest economy.
In the first half of this year, both Samsung and SK Hynix reported significant sales growth on the mainland amid speculation that Washington may further restrict China’s access to advanced chips and other technologies from the US and its allies.
