Arm ISA does not need Nvidia for a ‘kick in the rear’.
- Dracophoenix 5y agoAll very recent developments, but they all have limitations. Graviton is meant for data centers, Ampere is a GPU solution. M1's top configuration, while impressive in the prosumer space, is barely past the teraflop barrier. I doubt Apple and Amazon have any plans to build HPCs.
- klelatti 5y agoIf only HPC counts as powerful then you’ve already quoted that Nvidia and Fujitsu are using Arm under the existing ownership structure. > If ARM, inc. or Softbank were interested in high-powered chips, either of these companies would have done it by now. But they haven't. Just factually incorrect given what is happening at the moment with Neoverse. (And Ampere Computing not the Nvidia GPU design)
