NVIDIA A100 Ampere GPU Launched in PCIe Form Factor, 20 Times Faster Than Volta at 250W & 40 GB HBM2 Memory
 
 
In terms of specifications, the A100 PCIe GPU accelerator doesn't change much in terms of core configuration. The GA100 GPU retains the specifications we got to see on the 400W variant with 6912 CUDA cores arranged in 108 SM units, 432 Tensor Cores and 40 GB of HBM2 memory that delivers the same memory bandwidth of 1.55 TB/s (rounded off to 1.6 TB/s). The main difference can be seen in the TDP which is rated at 250W for the PCIe variant whereas the standard variant comes with a 400W TDP.

    The PowerPoint presentation cost more than the hype interesting🤔

    Those who abuse power, are nothing but scumbags! The challenge of power is how to use it and not abuse it. The abuse of power that seems to create the most unhappiness is when a person uses personal power to get ahead without regards to the welfare of others, people are obsessed with it. You can take a nice person and turn them into a slob, into an insane being, craving power, destroying anything that stands in their way.

    40GB? Programmers are just getting criminally sloppy for that to matter.

    A 400W unit throttled down to 250W?  That won't be great.  For whatever reason, recent AMD GPUs have been shown to scale down really well as power is throttled; recent NVIDIA GPUs have been shown to not.  Unless Ampere has done something to change that paradigm.

    All that matters to me is how well does Halo run
     
    GTX 690, pass
    GTX 1060, pass
    RTX 2080, pass
     
    all cards play Halo at 4K fine

    I would think this would be very good for computation power for servers. Reduced power requirements is always a good thing.
