On CPU craft, intel insists to use 14nm already 5 years, AMD is about to roll out 7nm acute dragon this year. On GPU, AMD next month pushs 7nm Navi even, but friendly business NVIDIA still is using 12nm technology, pursue clever to present Turing from Volta, NVIDIA also is making Cheng craft go up it seems that " be forced to tell sth bit by bit " .
But is the chip with advanced technology certain? AMD tries to precede with what push 7nm chip him proof first, but NVIDIA is calm, not rapid move enters 7nm node. The conference declared to go up in money a few days ago, huang Renxun of NVIDIA author, CEO spoke of them making the choice on Cheng craft and trend in GPU again.
Huang Renxun expresses NVIDIA more the craft that apt and acting work companionate station accumulate electric collaboration to design his, and rather than buys off-the-peg workmanship -- what he says the setting of this word is Volta, Turing the 12nm FFN technology that two acting GPU use is combination stage accumulating report is custom-built, what among them N represents is NVIDIA custom-built, is not the 12nm technology with stage accumulating current report.
Is the GPU of craft of that 12nm FFN behaved how? Huang Renxun says " if you chose graph clever GPU, you can take it to fall with 7nm GPU contrast can effect, turing is unapproachable. Now in the market already 7nm GPU leaves sold, you can make a contrast very easily, and function, can effect and we current GPU makes a contrast. And function, can effect and we current GPU makes a contrast..
As a whole, NVIDIA does not pursue the most advanced technology on GPU, it is better to hope to design function with custom-built craft more however, can the framework with taller effect.
This also is not Huang Renxun has such making known one's position for the first time, when interviewing, Laohuang is accepted after the GTC congress March also is such making known one's position, do not approbate the brilliant circle that buys acting plant directly to make a service, want to rely on the ability of oneself group engineer however, the function that the most important result is GPU, can effect, is not area size.
