Silicon Motion believes AI PCs are about to change what matters most in SSD performance. The company’s new SM2524XT PCIe Gen5 DRAMless controller focuses heavily on random IOPS, low latency, and AI inference workloads instead of just traditional sequential benchmark numbers.
SK hynix and Sandisk are working to standardize HBF memory under the Open Compute Project, positioning it as a new layer between HBM and SSDs for AI inference workloads. The companies say HBF can improve scalability, power efficiency, and total cost of ownership as AI shifts from training to large-scale deployment.
AI infrastructure is hitting a new limit that faster GPUs alone cannot fix. SK hynix’s Intel certified 256GB DDR5 server memory shows why capacity and efficiency now matter as much as raw compute for AI inference.
AMD unleashes its Zen 5-powered Ryzen Threadripper PRO 9000 WX-Series with up to 96 cores, PCIe 5.0, and serious AI horsepower.
