NVIDIA GTX Titan Z Has 5760 Cores

Posted in: Today's Chili

NVIDIA GTX Titan Z Has 5760 CoresNVIDIA just announced a new monster graphics card: the Titan Z. It is a dual GPU Titan card that features 5760 cores, 12GB of memory and generates 8 TeraFLOPS of compute power – for $2999. That rounds the cost of each core to about 50 cents. This is rather excellent if you happen to be shopping for a supercomputer that you don’t need to build, and that can be used without special power requirements. (more…)

    NVIDIA Pascal Architecture Introduced

    Posted in: Today's Chili

    NVIDIA Pascal Architecture IntroducedAt the GTC conference in San Jose, NVIDIA has officially introduced its next-generation architecture called Pascal (after scientist Blaise Pascal). Although it is “a couple of years away”, NVIDIA talked about a few new fundamental architecture changes that will take Pascal to the next level, when compared to its latest Maxell GPU architecture which was just launched recently on desktop and laptops.

    If you remember, something very similar named Volta was talked about last year. NVIDIA has confirmed to us that Pascal is NOT a replacement for Volta. Instead, Pascal has been introduced between Maxwell and Volta as NVIDIA saw an opportunity to introduce an intermediate architecture that was significant enough to justify its development.  (more…)

    NVIDIA Open To Licensing Its Technology To “Vertically Integrated” Companies

    NVIDIA Open To Licensing Its Technology To Vertically Integrated Companies

    NVIDIA’s CEO Jen-Hsun Huang’s talked to industry analysts today, and talked about various growth avenue, and he mentioned that NVIDIA was “open to licensing” its technology to companies that are heavily vertically integrated. Of course, two names pop immediately: Apple and Samsung, and this wouldn’t be very hard to see this as a message to those players, who both have their own processors. “We do it all the time” says NVIDIA’s CEO – even if most people think of NVIDIA as a company that fundamentally “sell chips” to its customers.

    NVIDIA Volta Next Gen GPU Architecture Provides Huge Bandwidth Boost

    Earlier today, we saw NVIDIA present Volta, it’s next-generation GPU architecture that is designed to increase performance by addressing one of the “eternal” problems linked to GPUs more than any other processor type: memory bandwidth. Volta is going to use RAM that is layered on top of the GPU silicon to reduce energy consumption and latency during memory accesses. With this, NVIDIA says that it will be able to push 1 Terabytes of data per second through the chip. This is 5X superior to the GeForce Titan, which tops 192GB/s. (more…)

    Graphics Processors Push Computer Vision Ahead

    Graphics Processors Push Computer Vision Ahead

    At GTC 2013, NVIDIA has demonstrated their version of Image Search, which was powered by their massively parallel processors. The goal of computer vision is to be able to recognize and understand what things are – not merely “seeing” them. This is a very intricate problem since computers are fast but fairly dumb (out of the box). They have no notion of “concepts”, unlike humans who can be shown one object, like a hat, then are able to recognize new hats as they see them. That’s because humans can acquire a notion of what a “hat” is. (more…)

    NVIDIAs Powerful Logan and Parker Tegra Chips Presented At GTC

    NVIDIA has revealed a little more of its roadmap today. Off the initial roadmap that was shown to us at Mobile World Congress 2011, there NVIDIA has revealed what Logan is about, and has added a new chip codenamed Parker to the roadmap. Before we talk about Parker, NVIDIA has reminded us that Logan is using a Kepler GPU, which means that this is the first time that NVIDIA says that it is using direct development coming from the PC.
