So now Nvidia has its first CPU and they claim it's 150% faster than AMD Epyc
I think the real big news is all the leaks were fake and wrong.. wasn't this meant to be a MCM design by they great leakers...
I think the real big news is all the leaks were fake and wrong.. wasn't this meant to be a MCM design by they great leakers... Proving now the so called respected leakers are BS artists and Lovelace leaked "facts" will be wrong too. BUT of course they will pretend they were right and Nvidia made some changes lol or they will twist their "facts" to make it look like they were right.
Hopper looks good but again the power use and the Nvidia special benchmarks/improvements they showed are well to be taken with a grain of salt till they are in the hands of a reviewers. So far what I see is what was really expected from Nvidia so again same old same old Nvidia. Lovelace ..20-30%+ on high end and lower down the stack as per usual. Just they will again flash big numbers and him screaming out our biggest gains ever as always and in real world gains the usual. Honestly the Hopper chips are great and the extra bandwidth and NVLINK updated too, BUT as expected really so nothing really massive change wise.
Also these will cost a small fortune .. look at the power components on the boards and the amount of phases required, they are double what ampere needed.![]()

They were not wrong, you just have to look at what was shown and draw the missing links it also helps if you understand how Nvidia works.
When making a new GPU Nvidia has dozens of teams all working on an individual part of the end product and they work in virtual highly controlled environments, these teams know very little of what each other is working on - only management know and have privy to how it pieces together. The leaks come from a lower down employee in a single team, he only has access to what he is doing and then he leaks it, or another leaks theirs etc so all the Twitter leakers have is small tidbits of information- some of thisnis vague and they infer from it
for example the reason they said it's MCM is because an Nvidia employee said he saw two dies on a PCB that's all; now that Nvidia has announced the GPu we know why - one of the HP100 server cards does HAVE TWO DIES ON THE PCB but one of the dies is Nvidias first ever CPU and the employee did not know it's a CPU because that was not his team
this means that the leakers will never be 100% correct when it comes to Nvidia GPUs - being 100% correct would require a person from every engineering team in Nvidia to leak info of the same product
