As a result, you turned around and created a super monster with 2080 billion transistors. Aren’t you too crazy?
Facing the stunned expressions on people's faces, Lin Feng smiled and said:
“The reason why the Xingtu GB400 computing card can achieve 2080 billion transistors is that we use highly integrated technology.
This chip looks like a single chip, but if it is actually split, it can be seen as four independent computing cores and a central computing core that is responsible for coordinating and allocating computing tasks.
When these five cores are highly integrated into one chip, the chip can have an astonishing 40PFlops computing power.
Some netizens may not quite understand what 40PFlops computing power means. Let me put it this way.
You may have heard of the Tianhe-1A supercomputer. After all, the first supercomputer we purchased at Xingtu Technology a few years ago was the Tianhe-1A supercomputer.
We spent 6.5 million yuan on it at the beginning. What is the computing power of the Tianhe-A supercomputer?
First of all, we need to know the difference between PFlops and TFlops. 1 PFlops is equal to 1024 TFlops.
The peak speed of the Tianhe-4700A supercomputer is 2566TFlops and the sustained computing speed is TFlops.
This means they can be considered to have a peak speed of 0.47 PFlops and a sustained computing speed of 0.25 PFlops!
If calculated based on the highest peak value, the actual computing power of this GB400 chip in my hand is equivalent to the computing power of 160 Tianhe-A supercomputers!"
Hearing Lin Feng's words, everyone at the scene showed an uproarious expression.
At this moment, they truly felt what it meant to change with the times.
When they were in school, textbooks said that the first generation of computers were as big as an entire room.
As a result, the computing power was not as good as that of the current mobile phones of the elderly, so they once lamented that the times have changed so much.
As a result, it only took 6 years, and the Tianhe-2010A supercomputer was released in .
Just like the first generation computers they had learned about in books, it was completely defeated by a chip that was as small as a palm.
This memory of studying in the past and the real scene happening now make people feel shocked.
After all, it's only six years.
Now, the computing power of a palm-sized GB400 computing card chip has reached that of 160 Tianhe-A supercomputers!
Is the speed of computing power evolution too fast? It’s so fast that it’s a bit unreal.
However, when people were in a trance, the supercomputing server solution released by Lin Feng made them completely dazed and unable to distinguish between reality and falsehood.
Because what Lin Feng is going to release next is a technical solution for a supercomputing server that integrates multiple GB400 computing cards to work together.
In this supercomputing server technology solution, it is not simply a matter of stuffing all these GB400 computing cards into one motherboard.
In fact, that motherboard is not an ordinary motherboard, but a standard motherboard for the Xingtu supercomputer communication bus specially developed by Xingtu Technology.
In terms of memory bandwidth alone, the memory bandwidth of this motherboard reaches an astonishing 130 TB/s!
It can be said that if you want to bring out the true performance of the GB400 computing card, simply relying on a traditional computer motherboard will not be able to bring out the performance that the GB400 computing card should have.
Only by using a motherboard that meets the Xingtu supercomputing communication bus standard can the performance of the GB400 computing card be brought into play.
What is the technical solution for a supercomputing server that integrates multiple GB400 computing cards?
According to the description in the picture, the first-generation supercomputing server can integrate 36 GB400 computing cards.
The theoretical maximum computing power limit can reach an astonishing 1440PFlops.
Of course, this is the theoretical upper limit. Due to various shortcomings, the actual computing power cannot reach 1440PFlops.
Of course, people no longer have the energy to pay attention to whether it can be done, because people are almost numb to the shock. All we can say is that Xingtu Technology is worthy of being Xingtu Technology, it is really too crazy.
Whether it is the released GB400 computing card or the first-generation supercomputing server platform, their birth will surely have a profound impact on the world.
……
the other side.
President Invida, who was watching the live broadcast in the live broadcast room, sat on a stool with a decadent look on his face, as if his spine had been pulled out.
"We lost. We lost completely."
Huang, the president of Weida, looked depressed and numb, with no light in his eyes.
The blow suffered by Weida was so great that it was a disaster. It could be said that Xingtu Technology stabbed it twice in its soft spot.
Because both of Nvidia's businesses have suffered fatal blows, namely the gaming graphics card business and the computing card business.
Of course, it is not correct to say that it is a computing card business because they have not yet launched a dedicated computing card.
All I can say is that this computing card is under development and is currently entering the final stages. It will be officially released in about two or three months.
But the absence of computing cards does not mean that the computing card business does not exist. This computing card business is actually undertaken by the original gaming graphics cards.
Therefore, NVIDIA actually has two businesses, one is the gaming graphics card business for gamers, and the other is the computing card business that meets the tasks of artificial intelligence and Bitcoin mining.
But now both businesses have been ruined by Xingtu Technology!
In the gaming graphics card business, the GTX 1080 graphics card they released a few weeks ago is like shit compared to the powerful Xingtu S80 graphics card and Xingtu S80 Plus graphics card.
At this time, if someone is willing to buy a GTX 1080 graphics card with backward performance, he is simply a newbie among newbies and a fool among fools.
As a result, Nvidia's gaming graphics card business was completely destroyed by Starway Technology.
The same is true for the subsequent computing card business. With computing cards with a minimum computing power of 40PFlops, Xingtu Technology directly crushed all of NVIDIA's graphics cards.
If we add the supercomputing server platform composed of GB400 computing cards, NVIDIA will have no ability to resist at all.
Of course, it is not just Nvidia that is suffering. Companies around the world that own supercomputers are also suffering.
Because the supercomputers they bought at huge prices could all be smashed after the release of the Xingtu GB400 computing card and the first-generation supercomputing server platform.
Because those supercomputers occupy a room or even several rooms in size, the amount of electricity they consume every day is so staggering.
As a result, their computing power is not as good as that of a GB400 computing card or a supercomputing server platform the size of a cabinet.
What an astonishing gap, what an astonishing waste of energy!
So after the release of the Xingtu GB400 computing card and the first-generation supercomputing server platform, all traditional supercomputers can be smashed.
If we continue to use traditional supercomputers today, we are simply burning money and wasting energy.
Of course, although traditional supercomputers can be smashed, they can first buy the Xingtu GB400 computing card and the first-generation supercomputer server platform.
For example, the American Empire will never be able to buy Starway Technology's Starway GB400 computing card and the first-generation supercomputer server platform.
Of course, if they purchase the Xingtu GB400 computing card and the first-generation supercomputing server through second-hand channels, Lin Feng will have no choice.
The only thing Lin Feng could do was to make his own entity list and announce that any company that sold the first-generation supercomputer server platform to the United States would be blacklisted and would never cooperate with them again. (End of this chapter)
