Simple answer, PC demand is low relative to mobile.
A lot of people are fine with a 5+ year old PC, but not so with a phone.

Tianma Launches Mass-Produced 185Hz Ultra-Sensitive High Refresh Rate Screen
Tianma has achieved a major milestone in display technology by launching the world’s first mass-produced 185Hz AMOLED ultra-high refresh rate screen, pushing mobile visual performance to new heights. Building on its prior success with 165Hz displays, this breakthrough delivers an unmatched blend of speed, precision, and efficiency — particularly for gaming and fast-motion content.
- Dual-Track Pixel Architecture: Tianma’s proprietary discrete pixel circuit design decouples data writing from DTFT threshold compensation, solving the longstanding trade-off between speed and image accuracy. This improves first-frame brightness by 13.4% and reduces image retention by 61%.
- Ultra-Fast Response: With a 5.4ms per frame response time and intelligent touch latency optimization, the screen enables “point-and-shoot” precision in e-sports — eliminating ghosting and enhancing detail in fast-paced scenes like FPS games.
- Power Efficiency: Despite the high refresh rate, the screen uses low-power light-emitting tech (award-winning) and a smart power model to reduce energy consumption, extending battery life without sacrificing performance.
- Eye Comfort & Uniformity: Features full-scene flicker-free dimming and pixel-level calibration for consistent color/brightness, ensuring long-term visual comfort and image quality.
Tianma leverages its Tiangong Screen platform, backed by world-class R&D facilities and four core research platforms (panels, optics, driving, materials). The company is already developing 240Hz technology and holds leadership in LTPO, foldable, and SLOD innovations.
Tianma aims to make cutting-edge displays accessible beyond labs — integrating them into everyday experiences from gaming to browsing. With the tagline “Good screen, illuminating the beauty of life,” the company positions its tech as enhancing not just performance, but overall visual well-being.

3D-PATH: A Hierarchy LUT Processing-in-memory Accelerator with Thermal-aware Hybrid Bonding Integration.
LUT-based processing-in-memory (PIM) architectures enable general-purpose in-situ computing by retrieving precomputed results. However, they suffer from limited computing precision, redundancy, and high latency of off-table access. To address these challenges, we present 3D-PATH, a novel PIM architecture that employs 3D hybrid bonding to integrate a DRAM-LUT, enhancing system capacity and reducing access latency. To further optimize efficiency, 3D-PATH introduces a hierarchical fast-LUT design that reduces storage redundancy and accelerates computation. Additionally, 3D-PATH extends computing precision by efficiently supporting floating-point operations via representation transformation and parallel interleaving banks. While hybrid bonding offers significant benefits, it induces heat dissipation challenges. To address this, we implement thermal-aware hardware that ensures the DRAM Die temperature maintains below the threshold of 85°C. Evaluations on arithmetic and AI workloads demonstrate that 3D-PATH achieves up to 12.68 × higher throughput than GPUs and 2.27-7.54 × over prior LUT-PIMs, while delivering a 12.24 × improvement in floating-point energy efficiency over GPU and 2.13 × over a 3D baseline.
Are the Koreans going to buy under US meddling? Are they going to buy Huawei HBM over local Korean HBM?
If PC demand is low, how come ddr5 ram is so expensive?

I wouldn't worry that much about whether they'll buy it or not. Its not about the sales, more about the thought behind it.
The fact that Huawei is willing to sell overseas is the main takeaway here. You don't sell overseas if you are struggling to feed your own domestic market.
lol There is zero chance the US will allow this. I’m surprised they think they can do this in a close US ally country instead of looking at countries who don’t have that much closed ties with the US. Moreover, I think it’s about too early for exports no? I believe they should focus on first dominating the Chinese market first, with Nvidia now allowed to sell their H200 chips to China, many Chinese companies will now be going back to Nvidia for obvious reasons. So huawei should’ve more focused on the Chinese market where they have more of a chance of better competing than in foreign countries where Nvidia is almost omnipotent/omni present . It will be a very tough battle for them to even have a chance to get a little market share outside China, given Nvidia quasi dominance monopoly and their tech stack/ecosystem which they have locked all customers into using their CUDA system for training. It’s for this reason even Chinese companies still prefer Nvidia than Huawei if giving the choice to choose. So it will be a tough battle for Huawei.
I'm a FPS gamer, I wonder if it could be used for magnetic keyboard like wooting. It's power consumption is even lower than some low-end TMR which doesn't need power hungry amplifier stage and biasing.
