Micron: GDDR5X Has Arrived

Stefan Mileschin · 11th February 2016, 14:57

Micron Technology announced yesterday via its company blog that GDDR5X will hit mass production as soon as this summer. There have been a variety of rumors in the industry about GDDR5X availability timeframes, so I'd like to clear that up from the beginning: Micron's GDDR5X program is in full swing and first components have already completed manufacturing. We plan to hit mass production this summer. The team at our Graphics DRAM Design Center in Munich, Germany is doing a fantastic job, too. Not only do we have functional devices earlier than expected, these early components are performing at data rates of more than 13Gb/s!
