NVIDIA Reportedly Having Issues with Samsung's HBM3 Chips Running Too Hot

According to Reuters, NVIDIA is having some major issues with Samsung's HBM3 chips, as NVIDIA hasn't managed to finalise its validations of the chips. Reuters are citing multiple sources that are familiar with the matter and it seems like Samsung is having some serious issues with its HMB3 chips if the sources are correct. Not only do the chips run hot, which itself is a big issue due to NVIDIA already having issues cooling some of its higher-end products, but the power consumption is apparently not where it should be either. Samsung is said to have tried to get its HBM3 and HBM3E parts validated by NVIDIA since sometime in 2023 according to Reuter's sources, which suggests that there have been issues for at least six months, if not longer.
