Samsung has announced its new LPDDR5X memory chips with improved performance, higher capacity, and significantly reduced energy consumption for PCs, servers, cars, and other products.

Samsung has introduced its "industry-first" HBM3E 12H DRAM, a 12-stack memory with 36GB capacity and 1,280 gigabytes per second bandwidth. Mass production begins in the first half of this year.

TrendForce has said that the fourth quarter will see a 3-8% increase in the price of DRAM and NAND Flash. It said that the rate in increase will depend on a few factors on the supply and demand sides.

Samsung has started mass-producing its "most advanced" DDR5 DRAM memory chips based on 12nm technology. The new memory feature improved power efficiency and productivity for next-generation computing.

Today, you can get 2TB Samsung 870 QVO SATA III 2.5” internal solid-state hard drive at 52% off its original MSRP. Alternatively, you can check other SSD and HDD deals from Seagate, WD, and Crucial.

Samsung and Qualcomm have successfully completed the validation of 8.5Gbps LPDDR5X. This means we should begin to see Snapdragon powered phones, among others, with the new superfast RAM soon.

Samsung has unveiled its latest DRAM developments for flagship graphics cards. The firm's latest GDDR6 memory chips promise speeds up to 24 Gbps and innovative circuit design with advanced materials.

AMD has filed a patent that eliminates the guesswork, trial-and-error, and risk associated with overclocking computer memory, or RAM, and stores profiles locally but avoids key tweaks.

Crucial memory is discounted today by up to 43%, which is nearly half price, on some of its products. We have made a compilation of all such Crucial DRAM products that are selling at hefty discounts.

Samsung has received certification from Qualcomm that its LPDDR5X memory can be used on Snapdragon mobile platforms. It will deliver big performance and power-saving improvements for smartphones.

The next-gen LPDDR standard dubbed LPDDR5X has been announced today by Samsung. It is the industry's first such solution and promises to deliver 64GB capacities at 8.5Gbps to low-power devices.

A new general-purpose memory compression technology called Ziptilion, developed by ZeroPoint, can increase the effective capacity and bandwidth of the available physical memory by around "2-3x".

SK hynix has announced today its latest 1anm DRAM node, the company's fourth-gen 10nm memory process. The 1anm node is produced utilizing EUV tech and enables faster and more efficient DRAM chips.

Memory chipmaker SK hynix has admitted today that some of its DRAM products are indeed faulty. However, it has denied the rumors that close to a quarter of a million of its chips was affected.

"Half-double" is a Rowhammer exploit which grants access to wider memory addresses on newer DRAM chips. Malicious code can potentially take control of the full system through this hardware bypass.

Samsung has released an industry-first integrated PMIC that is designed to provide major power savings on its DDR5 memory modules. The three types of PMICs released today will scale the entire market.

Samsung has built the industry's first DDR5 memory compatible with the CXL interface. CXL is a cache-coherent interconnect which allows for high-performance heterogeneous computing.

A Chinese company called Netac is allegedly planning to build the world's fastest DDR5 memory that will run at over 10,0000 MHz. To do so it is using one of Micron's DDR5 DRAM chip models.

MSI has created a new DDR4 speed record by overclocking a HyperX Predator 2400 module to 7156MHz. The feat was achieved on the company's new MEG Z590I UNIFY which is a premium mini-ITX motherboard.

Samsung announces that it has designed and developed the industry's first 512GB DDR5 DRAM module. For its power efficiency, the company has applied HKMG technology, traditionally used in processors.

Samsung begins mass production of its new 10nm 16GB LPDDR5 DRAM chips. The new 1z-based chip is 16% faster than last year's 1y-based 12GB LPDDR5 DRAM chips and is lithographed using EUV technology.

Samsung has announced the discovery of amorphous boron nitride. It said that the new material is distinct from white graphene and will be used in DRAM and NAND solutions in the future.

Samsung has announced that it has shipped a million extreme ultraviolet-based DRAM modules following the completion of customer evaluations. The firm plans to use the EUV process in future products.

Samsung has announced a new SSD and memory designed for AMD's new EPYC 7002 processors. The new PM1733 SSD can store up to 30.72TB, while the new memory has capacities up to 256GB.

Samsung has announced that the mass production of 12Gb LPDDR5 mobile DRAM has begun. The new chips will be used in upcoming premium model smartphone devices and are optimised for 5G and AI tasks.

Samsung has started mass producing its 2nd-generation 10nm LPDDR4X DRAM module based on the 1y-nm process which will help reduce energy consumption by 10% while maintaining the same data rate.

The American manufacturer Micron has acquired Japan's Elpida for around $2.5bn, thus climbing the ranks of the largest memory chip makers in the world.

Micron Technology has announced production sampling of its new 1Gb DDR2 device fabricated on 68nm DRAM process technology. The new process, coupled with Micron's 6F2 technology, has enabled the world's smallest production 1Gb DDR2 memory...

Persistent weak DRAM pricing has prompted more DRAM makers to offer their chips in effectively tested (eTT) form, meaning reducing demand and weakening sales at testing houses. Following Elpida Memory's increase in its eTT sales...

Thanks to XREX for submitting this to our front page. Samsung Electronics has announced that it has developed the first all-DRAM stacked memory package using 'through silicon via' technology, which will soon result in memory...
