SK hynix claims the world's first High NA EUV machine for mass production of advanced chips, taking the lead over Intel in this technological race

In the world of gaming and technology, the latest news, reviews, and hardware deals are always buzzing. One such exciting development comes from SK hynix, a leading name in the industry.

SK hynix, known for its innovative approach, is set to revolutionise the AI memory space with its futuristically complex DRAM. According to Cha Seon Yong, Head of R&D at SK hynix, this addition of critical infrastructure will bring their technological vision into reality.

The new system, which delivers an impressive 2.9 times the existing transistor densities, promises a 40% improvement in the Nanometre (NA) to 0.55 from 0.33. This advancement is significant, as it can print transistors 1.7 times smaller than previous High NA EUV machines.

SK hynix has set up a High NA EUV lithography system for mass production in its M16 fab based in Icheon, South Korea. The lithography system used by SK hynix is a TWINSCAN EXE:5200B, as opposed to the 5000 used by Intel.

This cutting-edge technology is not just a step forward for SK hynix; it's a leap towards the power-hungry world of AI computing. The company aims to produce some of the most powerful DRAM ever made with this new system, potentially kitting out huge AI data centres first.

For gamers, this development means improved performance and efficiency in their systems. Let's take a look at some of the best CPUs for various budgets and performance levels:

  • The best budget CPU is the Intel Core i5 13400F.
  • The best mid-range CPU is the AMD Ryzen 7 9700X.
  • The best high-end CPU is the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D.
  • The best AM4 upgrade CPU is the AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D.
  • The best CPU with integrated graphics is the AMD Ryzen 7 8700G.
