As we all know, high-bandwidth memory HBM (High Bandwidth Memory) has become a PC the video card manufacturer to embrace the most powerful weapon of the future, although currently only AMD use of HBM's Fury series memory, HBM graphics will still provide an inexhaustible source of new products coming in the future, become the focus in high-end video cards. AMD has confirmed that its new Polaris GPU will definitely continue HBM memory advantage, while Pascal GPU Nvidia focus this year products will also be chasing HBM memory trends. Now I can confirm is that these next-generation high-end graphics cards will better HBM using second generation 2 memory.
Wei Feng network on January 21, before the news that Samsung has already accelerated HBM 2 memory manufacturing, in particular 4GB HBM 2 memory production goals. This is vital for the next generation of major brand manufacturers of video cards, why? As we all know, AMD released in Fury after the video, because it is the first time the use of new technical standards, lack of production and inventory, leading to HBM graphics than shortages, HBM 2 stocks accelerated in manufacturing, is very good news.
Reportedly said Samsung 20nm process process production 4GB HBM 2 memory, using 4 8Gb granule packaging specifications, each memory chip can provide bandwidth up to 256Gpbs, to twice times the first HBM, and equivalent of of GDDR5 at least five times, but the size is much smaller. It is clear that HBM new video memory video memory across very technical standards. Samsung believe that HBM production memory is very important, is working to increase production to meet the expected demand by graphics card manufacturers.
More capacity, less space
4GB HBM 2 memory is just the beginning of mass production. Samsung said at the end of this year can open 8GB HBM 2 memory and mass production, and video in a smaller volume than existing products into a larger volume of memory, compared with GDDR5 current design standards, and design of video card manufacturers will feel save space of 95%.
Believe that HBM memory for space savings, most AMD fans are not new, particularly Radeon R9 Nano, the length of the block graphics 15cm, equivalent to half of the previous generation flagship R9 290X, but provide higher performance for each tile. Most importantly, AMD's new graphics cards using HBM single volume only for 1GB, composed of four 4GB, Samsung mass-production capacity video memory 4GB space will be significantly reduced.
Many people may know about the HBM does not, after all, the current products are rarely. Simply put, HBM solves the DRAM need to stop stacking poor increased capacity, it is also somewhat similar to the Samsung and Intel V-NAND and 3D for small volume provided by the SSD NAND technology. HBM's technology will not only help the video memory with lower power consumption and greater storage density, greatly reduced the area of memory chips, but also between the memory and GPU kernel access.

Thanks to HBM stack memory, each memory chip share corridors wide memory bandwidth up to 1024-bit. This undoubtedly helps to significantly reduce power consumption, I believe friends are aware of video memory bus bandwidth, as long as the lower frequency will be able to ensure that a large number of data transfer.
Using a broad range
Of course, not just a graphics card products benefit from the HBM memory technology, super computers, servers, and data centers are also using HBM memory, there will be mass speed and energy efficiency. In addition, taking into account the HBM memory saves so much space, the future seems likely to also apply to smartphones and tablets, perhaps more mature HBM2, may also be HBM 3 technical standards.

Nvidia and AMD have begun hyping their next-generation video cards, each claim is a game-changer, explosive performance, as well as a good level of energy efficiency. So is watching the game enthusiast, ready for the silver on the line.
