NVIDIA GRID A100B: specs and benchmarks
Summary
NVIDIA started GRID A100B sales 14 May 2020. This is an Ampere architecture desktop card based on 7 nm manufacturing process and primarily aimed at designers. 48 GB of HBM2e memory clocked at 2.4 GB/s are supplied, and together with 6144 Bit memory interface this creates a bandwidth of 1,866 GB/s.
Compatibility-wise, this is an integrated video card. No additional power connector is required, and power consumption is at 400 Watt.
We have no data on GRID A100B benchmark results.
