BlockBeats News, June 7th, NVIDIA (NVDA.O) CEO Jensen Huang said that the company's new Vera central processing unit will use SK Hynix's storage chips, and the two companies are expected to further cooperate in the next year.

Jensen Huang told reporters outside a restaurant in Seoul on Sunday that he had dinner that day with SK Group Chairman Choi Tae-won, SK Hynix CEO Lee Seok-Hee, and SK Telecom executives. He said, "Our cooperation with SK Hynix this year is very large in scale, and we are preparing for even larger-scale cooperation in the second half of this year and next year.
