Supercomputers have taken on a significant role in today’s world as the world increasingly moves towards AI developments. Integrating this technology into consumer applications requires far more than just ‘brain power’. This is where data centers like Eos come into play, providing the computing power needed to achieve the desired [...]
The NVIDIA Grace CPU is an alternative to conventional x86 CPUs in the server sector. It is based on the Arm architecture and has up to 144 Neoverse V2 cores. There are two variants of the Grace CPU: firstly, the Grace Hopper Superchip with the H200 GPU and a single Grace chip with 72 cores and HBM memory, and secondly, the Grace Superchip, which [...]
I’ve been officially testing monitors at Igor’sLab for almost two years now. I started out quite rudimentary with a very cheap colorimeter, the SpyderX and a mixture of DisplayCal and the SpyderX software. Everyone starts small, of course. The whole thing then developed quite quickly and we gradually upgraded and managed to get [...]
Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger announced during the Q4 2024 earnings call that the Core Ultra platform will be expanded later this year to include new families such as Lunar Lake & Arrow Lake. This will potentially increase AI performance by 3x. In 2025, the Core Ultra series will see a further 2x performance boost with the introduction of Panther [...]
Our colleagues at WCCFTECH have also had their thoughts on AI. After all, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in almost every major technology sector seems to be progressing inexorably worldwide. Recently, the term “AI PC” has also taken on a new meaning in terms of its use by technology giants. Based on previous [...]
NVIDIA’s ACE (Avatar Cloud Engine) is an impressive technology that has yet to be seen in action. However, with the latest announcement from Team Green, we’re getting closer. The company has today unveiled its production microservices for ACE technology. These enable game developers, tools developers and app developers to seamlessly [...]
Getty Images, a global creator and marketplace for visual content, today unveiled at CES Generative AI by iStock, an affordable and commercially safe image generation service trained on the company’s creative library of licensed, property-ready data. Based on NVIDIA Picasso, a foundry for custom AI models, Generative AI by iStock provides [...]
AMD’s Ryzen 8040 series, also known as “Hawk Point”, is based on the Zen 4 architecture and represents a major advance in AMD’s mobile processor offering. These processors, which are expected to launch on January 31, 2024, are designed as an update to the previous Phoenix 7040 series and do not represent a complete overhaul [...]
Intel has taken a significant step in its development with the new “Meteor Lake” CPU platform, marketed as “Core Ultra”. These processors are the first from Intel to use the “Intel 4” process, which is based on EUV lithography, and the first Intel client CPUs where parts of the SoC are manufactured by TSMC [...]
AMD has introduced some significant changes to the SP6 socket compared to its predecessors. The SP6 socket (LGA 4844), which was introduced on September 18, 2023, is specially designed for the Epyc 8004 processors of the Siena series, which are based on the Zen 4c architecture. It is aimed at server systems that are geared towards infrastructure [...]
The time has finally come: AMD has delivered on its long-awaited promise and the Exascale-class APU, the Instinct MI300A, is finally going into series production. Series production will begin this quarter and the APU is expected to be available in 2024 as the world’s fastest HPC solution. It has been a long time coming and people have been [...]
At Computex 2023, NVIDIA presented its ACE (Avatar Cloud Engine) technology for the first time. The goal was to help developers integrate unique AI models for speech, conversation and movement into game characters. Later, the technology was further enhanced with NVIDIA’s NeMo SteerLM tools to add an additional layer of customization for each [...]
Where do current workstation graphics cards from both manufacturers stand when it comes to design, construction, simulation, 3D visualization and creation? Has AMD been able to catch up or even overtake with the new lineup of Radeon Pro graphics cards or are Ada and Ampere still the measure of all things? I’ll try to find objective answers [...]
According to the latest information, NVIDIA’s upcoming GPU architecture will be named Vera Rubin. Vera Rubin was an American astronomer who made significant contributions to the understanding of dark matter in the universe while pioneering work on the rotation rate of galaxies. Her findings pointed to the existence of significant amounts of [...]
NVIDIA introduces its new superchips, which offer a combination of Grace CPU and Hopper GPU chips. These chips enable the entire AI and data center ecosystem to reap the benefits. The team at NVIDIA aims to provide customers with a comprehensive package that allows them to focus on different types of workloads in the industry. This is achieved by [...]
In the third quarter of 2023, the research company Omdia gained detailed insights into Team Green’s activities and discovered astonishing results. NVIDIA sold an almost unbelievable “half a million” AI GPUs in the quarter, mainly consisting of the Hopper H100 and the Ampere A100. These sales figures are impressive and have put [...]
The Xinfrared T2S Plus is considered one of the pioneers among thermal imaging cameras for smartphones with a usable 8mm macro lens. This special design allows users to capture detailed thermal images of objects even at close range, which is especially useful for identifying heat loss, the condition of insulation, electrical problems and details [...]
With the Radeon Pro W7700, AMD is now closing the huge gap between the previously tested Radeon Pro W7800 and W7600, thereby completing its own portfolio of RDNA3 graphics cards for productive use. Even though this chip and the corresponding design as a gaming graphics card would place it very elegantly between a Radeon RX 7600 and the RX 7700XT [...]
AMD today announced that it will deliver on its promise to bring support for ROCm and other machine learning and development features to its customer-facing products within the RDNA 3 GPU family. Last month, the company introduced support for the Radeon RX 7900 XTX and Radeon PRO W7900 GPUs, and is now expanding the offering to include the Radeon [...]
