Nvidia to Spend $250 Billion for the Purchase of Data Center Equipment: Blackwell Chip Unveiled

 

The Blackwell B200. Named after David Harold Blackwell, a mathematician who specialized in game theory and statistics, the Blackwell chip is set to revolutionize the AI industry. The Blackwell B200 is touted as the world's most powerful single-chip GPU, housing 208 billion transistors.

 

It is claimed to be 30 times faster than its predecessor, making it a formidable tool for handling AI models. The chip is designed to reduce AI inference operating costs and energy consumption by up to 25 times compared to the H100.

 

The Blackwell platform introduces six transformative technologies for accelerated computing. These include a second-generation Transformer Engine, a fifth-generation NVLink, a RAS Engine, secure AI capabilities, and a decompression engine for accelerated database queries. These technologies are expected to unlock breakthroughs in data processing, engineering simulation, electronic design automation, computer-aided drug design, quantum computing, and generative AI.
