  So you want to stream some video games from the cloud? Apple hasn’t made that very easy on its devices thanks to some heavy-handed App Store policies, but the open internet is coming to the rescue. Both Nvidia and Google have announced iOS support for their respective cloud gaming …

  It’s not unusual to see some users posting problems when a new GPU or CPU launches, but there’s early data suggesting that some RTX 3080 and RTX 3090 GPUs have a stability problem when they push near-to or above 2GHz. Most reports have focused on 2GHz, but at least …

  Nvidia recently unveiled its long-awaited Amepre-based graphics cards, displacing the famously spendy Turing architecture. Ampere isn’t going to be cheap necessarily, but the value seems great based on some early tests. You might also be happy to learn you won’t need a PCIe 4.0 slot for the top-of-the-line RTX …

  Microsoft is deploying Nvidia’s new A100 Ampere GPUs across its data centers, and giving customers a massive AI processing boost in the process. Get it? In the– (a sharply hooked cane enters, stage right) Ahem. As I was saying. The ND A100 v4 VM family starts with a single …

  Over the past week or so, I’ve written several articles exploring the idea of an ARM sale to Nvidia and the long-term effects on the computer industry, as well as how Nvidia might ameliorate some of those concerns. According to one of ARM’x co-founders, Hermann Hauser, allowing Nvidia to …

Nvidia Overtakes Intel as World’s Most Valuable Chip Maker Nvidia has overtaken Intel as the world’s most valuable chip maker, at least briefly. Increases in the GPU manufacturers’ market capitalization pushed its stock price to $404 on Wednesday, giving it a market capitalization at $248B, just about Intel’s $246B. Nvidia …

Over the past year, it’s often seemed as if Microsoft and Netflix have done everything they could possibly do to prevent 4K streaming on PCs. While 4K started rolling out on Netflix several years ago, only a handful of smart TVs were supported. The situation has only improved slightly since …

Last week, we covered Google’s internal benchmarks of its own TPU, or tensor processing unit. Google’s results revealed that the TPU is much faster than a conventional GPU for processing inference workloads, at a fraction of the power consumption. While machine learning still takes place on GPUs, Google’s TPU results …

When Nvidia launched the GTX 1080 Ti at the end of February, it short-circuited its own highest-end product, the 6-month old Nvidia Titan X, thanks to higher clocks and a much lower price tag ($700, compared with $1,200). Now, Nvidia is rectifying that issue with a full-fat GP102 part — …

Nvidia’s already going deeper down the self-driving vehicle rabbit hole in partnership with Bosch, but it’s also moving further into autonomous trucking with a new partnership with PACCAR, one of the world’s largest makers of transport trucks. The PACCAR arrangement has already resulted in the production of one proof-of-concept vehicle, …
