SK Hynix To Commence Mass Production of 4 GB HBM2 DRAM In Q3 2016

http://wccftech.com/sk-hynix-hbm2-mass-production-q3-2016/#ixzz42FHbKZbJ

SK Hynix is planning to commence production of their HBM2 DRAMs in Q3 2016, as reported by Golem.de. The source reveals that SK Hynix will be initiating full fledged mass production of 4 GB HBM2 DRAMs in Q3 ’16 and followed quickly with 8 GB HBM2 DRAMs in Q4 ’16. SK Hynix will be aiming to supply NVIDIA’s Pascal and AMD Polaris GPUs, both of which are expected to arrive in mid of 2016.

 

Q3 is the July to September period, but I really doubt we'll see AMD and Nvidia flagship cards until at least October. And the new Titan will arrive even later (because I assume it will use the 8GB version)

So basically I should build a new rig by next year once Intel and co release their new CPU's and Nvidia/AMD with their new flagships =P.

I should just go for the new monitor this year and spend most of this year saving for a new spec for next year.

More time to save the money

Oh, if Lenovo is available in the UK, you may want to take a look at one of the monitors they'll launch this year: Lenovo Y27g Curved 27" with 144Hz VA Panel and G-sync

It's 1080p and will cost $549 USD, but who knows how much it will be in the UK.
