Turing Up Close (yes i'm at siggraph)

[Mauller]

Got some piccies and info here.

The tensor cores will be open for use by anyone for AI work or RTX. NVlink also allows faster and more native memory unification between cards but multi GPU still needs to be explicitly coded for, no auto free meal as it seemed.

Quadro RTX 6000 uses the TU104 die with 3072 cuda cores and has 4 DP and one usb-c virtual link port.

The Swag lol.

 

[opethdisciple]

Nvidia socks!

Nvidia socks!

Oh yeah, I also have intel ones and an intel shirt I picked up from last night intel innovators event at a local Irish pub in downtown Vancouver.

MOR, take the cooler and thermal paste off the die! go wild!

lol, if only I could. The guys said they are Nvidias first production samples off the line. They were cool to let us see them but no touchy.

 

[beany_bot]

but no touchy.

no backplate either! Tell them to go away and try harder.

Thank you for the pics, that is great, but are you sure about that core count. As NVidia's own page says different.

I think that is a typo, also my feet have been burning. I think I need some active cooling.

Can we try putting those socks over a vega to cool it down?

Nice to see some real info about the new cards.

I notice the power connections are on the end of the card too.

You do realise that by wearing those socks you've granted Nvidia *ahem* 'sole' use of your foot and all right henceforth. Jensen will be skinning your toes for his next jacket

Heel realise his mistake soon enough

Do the socks have Heel-Sync?

NVLink between the toes.

I accidentally "overclocked" them this morning when I stood on my watch.

yes, it does seem that the Quadro and consumer parts are using different PCB's, shown by the short edge power connectors and the sync ports on the long edge. Both of those are missing on the leaked 2080 PCB.

I can see it now, The Nvidia Socks Owners Thread

 

[scritchyrat]

It's a shame that AMD haven't dropped any socks. Imagine the amount of threads they would have compared to Intel socks.

 

[Mauller]

was going to try blagging a radeon pro lanyard. All I have is my notepad and radeon pro pen.

but yeah, AMD give you two full socks while intel gives you one sock with hyperstitching.

Also, when you want to wear team colours but your shirt is having an identity crisis.

 

[new boy]

Those Nvidia socks will only work with nvidia footware

When will nvidia embrace open source sock technology?
