imec researchers explore 3D DRAM stacking above GPUs

Researchers at imec have published a paper detailing a novel 3D memory architecture that stacks DRAM dies vertically above a GPU. This approach aims to expand the thermal design envelope for integrated memory solutions, moving beyond traditional High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) configurations. The study evaluates the thermal implications of this volumetric DRAM-on-GPU integration. AI
