A group of judges have been going over some upcoming products giving out Design and Innovation awards. Samsung managed to receive up 36 of them, two of them are of particular interest to PC enthusiasts. The first is Samsung's new high-speed GDDR6 memory and the second regards a "next-generation form-factor" SSD.


During the upcoming CES 2018 we will have more information, however at this time Samsung has shed some light on both technologies. When it comes to GDDR6, Samsung claims that are the fastest and lowest-power next generation DRAM solution. Samsung's GDDR6 memory runs at 16Gbps with 64GB/s I/O bandwidth. This memory works with 1.35 volts. There is no doubt that GDDR6 will be a huge step forward for the industry.

In addition Samsung will introduce a 8TB NGSFF (next-gen form factor) SSD. Thanks to a new form factor, Samsung aims to improve performance and storage capacity for 1U rack servers. This drive can deliver up to 0.5 petabytes per second. We will find more information once CES will start.
