Leveraging 1β (1-beta) DRAM technology and innovative architecture, Micron GDDR7 delivers 32 Gb/s high-performance memory in a power-optimized design. With over 1.5 TB/s of system bandwidth, which is up to 60% higher bandwidth than GDDR6, and four independent channels to optimize workloads, GDDR7 memory enables faster response times, smoother gameplay, and reduced processing times.
GDDR7 also provides a greater than 50% power-efficiency improvement compared to GDDR6 to better thermals and lengthen battery life, while the new sleep mode reduces standby power by up to 70%. Advanced reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS) features on Micron GDDR7 enhance device dependability and data integrity without compromising performance, broadening the spectrum of applications to AI, gaming, and high-performance computing workloads.
Micron GDDR7 memory offers high performance that increases throughput by up to 33% and reduces response time by up to 20% for generative AI workloads such as text-to-image creation.
Moreover, Micron expects that graphics cards built with GDDR7 will provide a greater than 30% improvement in frames per second (FPS) for ray tracing and rasterization over current GDDR6 and GDDR6X trends across 1080p, 1440, and 4K resolutions. The addition of GDDR7 completes Micron’s industry-leading product portfolio for edge AI inference applications on CPU, NPU, and GPU components with DDR, LPDDR, and GDDR memory options. For gaming applications, the next-gen memory enables
