NVIDIA officially launched the RTX 4090 graphics card a few days ago. This is a new generation of nuclear bomb/card king. It didn’t break, and the price went up. Not only the price increase but the supply of RTX 4090 graphics cards after the first batch is obviously not optimal. The official flagship stores of major brands are generally on the reservation, that is, out of stock.
As for why the stock is out of stock and the price has risen, NVIDIA has not responded yet. It is reported that NVIDIA has shifted its production capacity to the higher-end H100 accelerator card. The price of this graphics card is much more expensive than the RTX 4090 graphics card. The information leaked in Japan showed that The PCIe version is more than 4.75 million yen, and the RMB is more than 240,000 yuan. The price of the SXM version should be more expensive.
The H100 accelerator card was released in March this year. At the GTC conference in September, NVIDIA also announced that the H100 graphics card will start shipping in October. Among them, Amazon, Google and Microsoft will be the first to use the three cloud service providers, as well as scientific research institutions and universities. strong.
H100 accelerator card adopts Hopper architecture, GH100 core, TSMC 4nm manufacturing process, CoWoS 2.5D packaging technology, integrates 80 billion transistors, and has a core area of 814 square millimeters.
It has 18432 CUDA cores, 576 Tensor cores, 60MB L2 cache, supports six HBM3/HBM2e with 6144-bit width, supports PCIe 5.0, and supports the fourth-generation NVLink bus.
The H100 computing card has two styles: SXM and PCIe 5.0. The SXM version has 15,872 CUDA cores and 528 Tensor cores, and the PCIe 5.0 version has 14,952 CUDA cores and 456 Tensor cores, with a power consumption of up to 700W.
