Hynix intros 40nm Class 2Gb GDDR5 DRAM

All thanks to Hynix, industry’s first 2Gb GDDR5 built on 40nm process technology is here! The firm today reported that it has developed a GDDR5 DRAM that is the fastest and highest density graphics memory available in the market today. The chip operates at 7Gbps bandwidth and processes up to 28GB/s with a 32-bit I/O.
What’s more, it also boast of low power consumption.
According to data supplied by Hynix, the DRAM operates at 1.35V, reducing the power consumption by 20% when compared to preceding generation 50nm DRAMs.
Hynix is planning to start mass production of 2Gb GDDR5 in the second half of next year.
