AMD Unveils MEXT Memory Solution: Leverages Flash To Mitigate DRAM Costs While Expanding Capacities & Retaining Similar Performance Even With 50% Cut In DDR5

A diagram shows 'AMD EPYC + AMD MEXT' illustrating how MEXT software integrates NVMe SSDs with DRAM, offering the same capacity at reduced costs, and highlights '3.5x Performance / DRAM-Dollar'.

AMD MEXT is a brand new memory solution that utilizes Flash to mitigate DRAM costs and supply concerns across EPYC CPUs. AMD MEXT Aims To Address The Ongoing DRAM Crisis Through An Innovative “Flash-Based” Memory Solution The memory supercycle continues to rage, and supply/demand continues to worsen. Today, the DRAM cost alone makes up 75% of the total server cost, and DRAM manufacturers face shortages that show no sign of ending. Although DRAM prices have seen a major reduction over time if we compare the ~$50M / GB cost from the 1970s to ~$8 / GB in the 2010s (a […]
