Samsung Unveils HBM4E at Nvidia GTC 2026 Amid New Nvidia AI Chip Design Using SRAM

Samsung Electronics unveiled its seventh-generation high bandwidth memory (HBM4E) at Nvidia's GTC 2026 conference, showcasing improved speeds and bandwidth for AI applications. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang acknowledged Samsung's expanded role, including foundry manufacturing for Nvidia's AI chips. Meanwhile, reports indicate Nvidia may introduce a new AI chip design using on-chip SRAM, which could alter AI memory demands. Experts suggest SRAM and HBM serve different functions, making SRAM unlikely to replace HBM in AI workloads.
