Of course, in addition to the frequency advantage, there is also the real advantage of a large number of transistors.
After all, the extra 164 billion transistors represent real computing power.
Therefore, the performance of the Xingtu S80 Plus graphics card is also quite strong.
It can be said that Xingtu Technology is really sincere and has squeezed the toothpaste to its limit, which is enough to beat the graphics cards of NVIDIA and AMD.
As for why Xingtu Technology squeezed the toothpaste to pieces, leaving no room for subsequent squeezing of toothpaste.
This is because Xingtu Technology owns the artificial intelligence Jarvis, and its demand for computing power is almost unlimited.
Therefore, it is naturally impossible for them to do what Nvidia and Intel did and try to squeeze the toothpaste for a tiny bit of profit.
For Xingtu Technology, what it needs is powerful performance and unlimited computing resources.
Xingtu Technology will push the limits of what can be achieved with current technology and processes.
As for whether squeezing the toothpaste to make it burst would be considered killing the goose that lays the golden eggs, the same thing applies.
Xingtu Technology needs unlimited computing power. For Xingtu Technology, the more computing power it has, the stronger it will be.
Moreover, after traditional silicon transistors reach 7 nanometers, the cost of further upgrading is too high and the performance improvement is not very obvious.
The future will either be the era of graphene chips, the era of carbon nanotubes, or the era of quantum computers.
Traditional silicon semiconductors are already entering their twilight years and won’t last long.
In this case, why not simply squeeze out the performance of silicon semiconductors to the maximum extent possible, seize market share and earn profits, and then have the money to develop new chips?
Therefore, Invida, a company that was in the same era as Xingtu Technology, is in such a miserable situation.
They are thinking of slowly squeezing the toothpaste and harvesting leeks repeatedly, but Xingtu Technology is thinking of bursting the toothpaste and squeezing out all the toothpaste for the next few years at once to increase computing power resources.
Under these two different development concepts, NVIDIA found that its strongest GTX 1080 graphics card was completely unable to compete with the powerful Xingtu S80 graphics card and Xingtu S80 Plus graphics card.
The performance gap between the two is like that between a few-year-old child and a special forces soldier, which made consumers vote with their feet and choose the graphics card of Xingtu Technology.
Of course, all this depends on the price of the two.
If the prices of the Xingtu S80 graphics card and the Xingtu S80 Plus graphics card are too expensive, consumers will still give up Xingtu Technology's graphics cards.
So after Lin Feng introduced the various performance parameters of the Xingtu S80 Plus graphics card and compared it with actual game tests, the next step was to reveal the price.
First of all, the price of the first product is Xingtu S80, which is the price of the low-end version.
When people saw the price, their mouths opened wide and they wondered if Xingtu Technology was crazy.
Because the price of the Xingtu S80 graphics card shown above is a staggering 1299 yuan, which is surprisingly cheap in this era!
"Incredible!"
"It's too cheap, so cheap that it's hard to believe!"
"Damn it, Xingtu Technology is going to smash the plate!"
"It smells so good, it smells so good at this price!"
"It's so powerful, but the price is as cheap as cabbage...
This Xingtu Technology is too cruel, it is going to drive both NVIDIA and AMD to death!"
"Love it, love it. From now on, I will only buy graphics cards from Xingtu Technology!"...
When people looked at the prices above, they couldn't help but exclaim that Xingtu Technology's graphics cards were so cost-effective, to a level that they could not even imagine.
"This price is very attractive, in fact, this is the price that a graphics card should have." "After all, a graphics card that was released a few years ago is selling for tens of thousands of yuan, which is simply crazy.
Because graphics cards are not as valuable as you think, nor as difficult to manufacture as you think.
At least its technical content and development difficulty are much easier than developing a mobile phone.
But in today's market, the price of a high-end graphics card from a few years ago has risen to 9000 to 1 yuan, which is already seriously unreasonable.
So after some discussion, we at Xingtu Technology finally decided to let the price of graphics cards return to its reasonable state. "
Hearing Lin Feng's words, the people at the scene, including the netizens in the live broadcast room, all applauded enthusiastically.
I have to say that Xingtu Technology is really awesome. The price of this graphics card is so cheap that it is completely forcing NVIDIA and AMD to death.
Of course, for consumers, they don’t care about the life and death of Nvidia and AMD. They are more happy that they can buy a graphics card with better performance for less money.
However, the price introduction of the graphics card has not stopped there. After all, the price of a high-end version has not been revealed.
So Lin Feng waved his right hand, and the projection screen and the picture in the live broadcast room behind him suddenly changed.
At this time, the price of the Xingtu S80 Plus version graphics card appears.
In this price, the price of the Xingtu S80 Plus version is almost double that of the Xingtu S80, with a slight increase.
In other words, the price is only 2899 yuan, which is still within the range that makes people happy.
It can be said that after seeing this price, both gamers and those who want to buy graphics cards for mining are very satisfied with the price.
Of course, this product launch conference will not only release two graphics cards, but also professional computing cards to be released later. However, these computing cards have nothing to do with ordinary people.
Because computing cards are specially used by artificial intelligence, Bitcoin miners, scientific research institutions, and technology companies.
For ordinary players, purchasing such computing cards will actually be of no use at all.
Of course, maybe someone will be able to do something with these computing cards in the future, but for now, ordinary people have no use for them except to mine Bitcoin.
So when people heard that the last thing to be introduced was a computing card, the number of people in the live broadcast room began to plummet.
However, those who had a demand for computing power did not leave, but instead watched the press conference with great enthusiasm.
The name of this Xingtu computing card is Xingtu GB400 computing card, and its core is a chip specially used for synchronous computing.
The chip of this Xingtu GB400 computing card is quite large, and holding it in your hand is like holding half a mobile phone.
When people saw the comparison between the Xingtu S80 graphics card chip and the Xingtu GB400 computing card chip, they couldn't help but be surprised.
After being surprised, I also became curious about this mysterious Xingtu GB400 computing card chip.
After all, it is well known that the larger the chip area, the stronger the chip performance will be. The Xingtu GB400 chip is so large, how strong will its performance be?
Following their curiosity, the projection screen behind Lin Feng and the live broadcast room displayed the number of transistors and their performance parameters.
Name: Xingtu GB400 computing card.
Number of transistors: 2080 billion transistors!
Computing card computing power: 40PFlops!
Look at the number of transistors and computing power of the computing card above.
The people at the scene and in the live broadcast room all had stunned expressions.
Because no matter which number it is, it is too exaggerated, to the point that it is hard to believe.
Previously, people were still amazed at the number of transistors in the Xingtu S80 Plus version, which integrates the graphics chips of two Xingtu S80 graphics cards. (End of this chapter)
