how can you hook this system to a laptop and use it for Blender or 3DSMAX renderings?
As I said in an OC3D thread, I love how they're calling this the largest "GPU". It's like me calling a rack mount multi-drive storage server the largest "HDD".
I guess it's whether people perceive the whole system is a "Graphics Processing Unit" or a system comprised of multiple "Graphics Processing Units" under a single management core?
Those interconnects look like Intels Monolithic die interconnects?
On a slight tangent, I really don't like those Leather jackets he wears, I don't really feel they suit him xD
But will it mine?
how does this compete against AMD project 47?
Possibly, but at 10KW you won't be plugging it into a domestic mains socket so the likes of us won't be mining on it.Quote:

2 peta flops at 16 bit precision? If so, similar, from a quick glanceQuote:

Surely they could hack off the deep learning part and make a go of it. Not sure why NV appears to have given up when it pushes the platform just like cuda (took 8yrs to really get into full swing). But can't blame them for aiming at cars, deep learning etc, just can't understand why 10mil (tapeout for a soc roughly last I checked) is too much to update a console you sell for years especially given how weak current consoles are compared to PC's. At 10nm this soc should be pretty good in mobile even strapping on a modem from Intel/Qcom. It wasn't worth it before android gaming took off, but now android gaming is pretty darn good, making the gpu part worth buying finally. Clearly from the specs here, it's a power sipper not a hog.
Just needs it own connection to the fuse box, as an electric shower does. Now whether you would ever make a profit is another matter, I suspect not.Quote:

A few interesting videos have been uploaded by Nvidia since this story was published:

Yeah, i suppose when you are that rich you can literally wear whatever you want, however you want xDQuote:

The drive comparison especially doesn't work because speaking strictly from a performance perspective, storage benefits greatly from striping, as it's typically a very basic well known few set of actions; read, and write.
So ya, I'd go with the CPU comparison :)
It is kinda amazing if he's even slightly on the mark with his point; slicing the performance penalty for splitting the load is no mean feat, generally speaking. If they've cracked it, it'll be a great boost to the folks who know how to put this stuff to use.
Because I don't have the bloody foggiest haha.
You can mostly do that when you're not, as well, so long as you can afford to buy it.Quote:
