AMD has partnered with Samsung Electronics to enhance its MI350 data center chip with advanced HBM3E memory technology in a deal worth approximately $3 billion. This partnership aims to boost the chip's capabilities, particularly in bandwidth, to compete more effectively with Nvidia's offerings. Samsung will supply 12-layer HBM3E DRAM for the MI350, with mass production expected in the first half of the year. Additionally, Samsung will purchase AMD GPUs, with supplies starting in the second half of the year. This move is seen as a strategic effort by AMD to improve its market position against Nvidia, especially in terms of chip bandwidth.
