Media reports indicate that South Korea’s Samsung Electronics is on the cusp of securing NVIDIA’s certification for its latest high-bandwidth memory (HBM4) chip, a move poised to help it close the competitive gap with SK Hynix in the premium AI storage market. NVIDIA relies heavily on HBM technology in its AI accelerators, making this certification milestone a focal point for industry observers. Sources confirm that Samsung has entered the final phase of NVIDIA’s rigorous evaluation process, having delivered its inaugural batch of HBM4 samples to the graphics giant in September of the previous year.
