BlockBeats news, on June 7, NVIDIA (NVDA.O) CEO Jensen Huang stated that the company’s new Vera central processor will use memory chips from SK Hynix, with both companies expecting to expand their collaboration further over the next year.
On Sunday, outside a restaurant in Seoul, Huang Renxun told reporters that he had dinner that day with SK Group Chairman Choi Tae-won, SK Hynix CEO Kwak No-jung, and senior executives from SK Telecom. He said, “This year, our collaboration with SK Hynix has been very substantial, and we are preparing for even larger-scale cooperation in the second half of this year and next year. We have launched the Vera CPU, a revolutionary central processor that will also use SK Hynix’s DRAM memory.”
Vera is NVIDIA's first standalone data center microprocessor, designed to directly compete with Intel's Xeon series, AMD's EPYC chips, and custom chips like Amazon's Graviton.
Huang Renxun arrived in Korea on Friday to visit partners and suppliers, and plans to meet on Monday with Samsung Electronics Vice Chairman Kim Yong-hyun, as well as senior executives from Hyundai Motor Group and LG Group. He also mentioned that discussions are underway with telecommunications companies, as future telecom networks will be used for AI applications. (Jinshi)
