SK hynix has developed what it claims is the world's best performing HBM3e memory with throughput of up to 1.15 terabytes (TB) per second. Translated into real-world workloads, that's fast enough to process more than 230 Full HD 1080p movies (each one 5GB in size) in a single second. That's kind of mind-boggling when...
