• “I think we very much rely on the Korean supply chain,” Su said, adding that Samsung and SK Hynix are “key for us to accomplish our broad ambition in data centres.”

• Su said overall data centre demand remained very strong, with AMD seeing strong demand signals across its product portfolio.

• In March, AMD and Samsung Electronics signed a memorandum of understanding to expand their strategic partnership on memory chip ​supplies for artificial intelligence infrastructure.

• The companies said at the time they would also ​discuss opportunities for a foundry partnership, under which Samsung could ⁠provide contract chip manufacturing services for next-generation AMD products.
