If so I wonder why Nvidia would opt for the slower memory as compared to that of Samsung?

Samsung has an awful habit of announcing stuff long before its ready, there is also the possibility that SK Hynix has increased their memory speeds since their last GDDR6 listings, or that Nvidia is using multiple vendors.

All very good points. Time will tell I suppose

I took a little dive into their website in hopes of finding out some more about its current specifications. Unfortunately it wasn't listed yet.

It looks like SK Hynix has struck gold for a bit with this deal which may include both HBM2 and GDDR6.

I thought that Micron was placed above SK Hynix in the food chain, silly me, those days are long gone - if they ever were real.

Hynix have been around a very long time. Most of the ram we use is made by them. I'm pretty sure I have some in another rig.

Oh yeah that much I knew; I thought they were inferior to Micron is what I meant to say.
