110 teraflops of computing power
The Volta architecture was announced earlier this year but has so far been reserved for NVIDIA's Tesla datacentre compute cards. Late last week, the company brought Volta to workstations with its new gold-coloured TITAN V. The card's said to be twice as efficient as its predecessor with up to 9x higher peak teraflop performance in deep learning applications.
The TITAN V uses a 12-nanometre FFN die built by TSMC to NVIDIA's customised specification. It has 12GB of HBM2 memory optimised for advanced bandwidth utilisation. Over 21.1 transistors are added in the manufacturing process, giving the TITAN V an impressive 110 teraflops of raw computing power. Output options consist of NVIDIA's standard three DisplayPort connectors and a single HDMI.
