I'd be curious to hear what Intel is developing to compete with this.
- bogomipz 11y agoDo you have similar links for CAPI? I feel like that along with NVLINK seem to be present in all the POWER literature.
- oneweekwonder 11y agoTo add to the above, From Wikipedia[0]: NVLink is a communications protocol developed by Nvidia. NVLink specifies a point-to-point connection between a CPU and a GPU and also between a GPU and another GPU. NVLink products introduced to date focus on the high-performance application space. and [1]: NVLink – a power-efficient high-speed bus between the CPU and GPU, and between multiple GPUs. Allows much higher transfer speeds than those achievable by using PCI Express; estimated to provide between 80 and 200 GB/s.
