AMD Naples server processor: More cores, bandwidth, memory than Intel
- tracker1 10y agoMan that sounds like a beast of a CPU... And if they nail the GPU usage, it could be a VERY good option for Windows VMs (where needed) and, not to mention, the GP/GPU workloads, though CUDA seems very entrenched in that space.

One of the AMD images claims a naples cpu + 4 instinct cards (gpu) have the equivalent computing power of a brain. I get that its marketing / advertising, but I am still curious about what they mean.. Is it a trivial number like: # of transistors == # of neurons? or # of calculations per second or some reasonable estimate of the brain's processing capacity.
