Pascal Nvidia graphics chip performance will be 10 times the Titan X


According to PCWorld website reported, Nvidia announced that the company code-named Pascal's next-generation graphics chip, providing at least about 10 times the performance of Titan X mission will be calculated. 
  NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang (Jen-Hsun Huang) when a keynote speech at the conference that the graphics chip technology, Pascal will be using a variety of new technologies, including 3D stacked memory and NVLink. Pascal says is essentially a supercomputer, NVIDIA's goal is to make it speeds up the current Maxwell-based graphics chip 10 times. 

  PCWorld said Jen-Hsun Huang also revealed, Pascal supports up to 32GB of memory, based on Maxwell's memory card can be configured with up to 12GB.



  Memory bandwidth of graphics performance impact is very large, if not enough memory bandwidth, the performance of the graphics chip can not be fully realized. Pascal supports three times the memory bandwidth Maxwell. Because Pascal uses the NVIDIA technology under development in NVLink - According to NVIDIA, said NVLink five times the performance of PCI-E, Huang said he expects a computer can be configured with up to eight cards, four more than the current limit graphics . 

  Volta graphics chip

  graphics chips Volta "return" NVIDIA product release plans. Under the original plan, Volta will release after Maxwell, but last year's GTC product release plans mysteriously disappeared, its position is replaced by Pascal. Jen-Hsun Huang announced product release plans show, Pascal Published in 2016, Volta Published 2018.


  Nvidia did not disclose details of Volta's. From the current point of view, Pascal will be the first use of NVIDIA graphics chips and NVLink stacked memory chip. 

  NVIDIA production PC

  PCWorld said that, in addition to updating the product release schedule, but NVIDIA also announced is called Digits DevBox, the price of $ 15,000 (about 92,334 yuan) in the development of equipment, built-in four GeForce Titan X cards. Huang said that future models of the built-in 8 Digits DevBox possible graphics. 

  NVIDIA own equipment sales development news will certainly cause resentment PC partners, they have been selling high-priced hardware to developers. But Huang said that although the first Digits Devbox price of up to $ 15,000, sales development purposes NVIDIA device is not profitable, "this will not be a business, but in order to help developers." Digits Devbox release date is May.
