SK Hynix

SK Hynix, the world’s second-largest memory chip manufacturer, produces the HBM3E high-bandwidth memory that powers Nvidia’s AI GPUs, dominating 60% of the AI accelerator supply chain. Its Icheon headquarters houses one of the most sophisticated DRAM fabrication complexes, achieving 30% higher yield rates than the industry standard. This performance enables SK Hynix to undercut #6 Micron Technology in cost per chip, while its HBM3E is 25% faster than the closest competitor from Samsung Electronics.
