… And the Texas Advanced Computing Center has a big partition comprised of Vera 88-core CPUs in the upcoming “Horizon” supercomputer that is being installed now. We think that TACC will have 836,352 cores across 4,752 Vera-Vera superchips for a total of 131.8 petaflops at FP64 precision. …
… If you do the math, that is eight Vera CPUs possibly four two-way Vera-Vera nodes in each sled, with 32 sleds in a Vera ETL racks. That is 256 CPUs with a total of 22,528 cores and 512 TB of main memory and 300 TB/sec of bandwidth across that memory. …
… If there are eight compute tiles on the Vera CPU, then maybe we can say the ratio is really one to one. It is tricky to count this, as Su has said. And it will get trickier when banks of CPUs start doing some inference for smaller models in a mixture of experts GenAI platform. …
… At GTC Washington, the systems maker announced the “Mission” and “Vision” that be housed at Los Alamos National Lab and will feature Nvidia’s upcoming “Vera” Arm server CPUs and “Rubin” GPUs combined into superchips, which Huang showed off onstage. …
… Under the partnership, Nvidia says that it will be supplying supporting technologies for custom XPUs with NVLink Fusion ports, including Vera CPUs, Groq LPUs, ConnectX NICs, Bluefield DPUs, NVLink interconnects, and Spectrum-X switches. …
… With the “Vera” VC100 CPUs and “Rubin” R200 GPUs in the Vera-Rubin platforms coming later this year , Nvidia will introduce a new G3.5 tier that is called inference context memory storage, which is basically use BlueField-4 DPUs used as a storage controller and put inside of the node/rack to be eve… …
… The Vera CPU clusters would be above and beyond this, but probably not enough to move the needle. …
