Micron’s Crucial brand has launched its new DDR5 CUDIMM memory modules featuring on-module Clock Drivers (CKD) for enhanced speed and stability. These modules, designed for both desktops and laptops, offer faster data transfer rates than regular DDR5 kits and have been validated by Intel for its Core Ultra 200S “Arrow Lake” CPUs. With speeds reaching 6400MT/s and kits up to 64GB, this new generation of DDR5 memory promises to power the next wave of AI-driven computing.
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (TSM) is spearheading the development of next-generation silicon photonics solutions, fueled by the growing demand for faster data transmission and energy efficiency in AI computing. The company, along with chip designers and suppliers, aims to create an ecosystem for this technology, leading to a projected market growth of $500 million by 2028.
In a significant move to enhance its artificial intelligence (AI) computing capabilities, technology giant Nvidia has acquired the Israeli-based startup Run:ai. The acquisition, valued at an estimated $700 million, will enable Nvidia to strengthen its software offerings for handling AI workloads. Nvidia and Run:ai have collaborated since 2020, and the acquisition is expected to further cement Nvidia’s position as a leading player in the AI computing market.
