The connector first appeared in the Nvidia RTX 40 GPUs. [5] [6] The prior Nvidia RTX 30 series introduced a similar, proprietary connector in the "Founder's Edition" cards, which also uses an arrangement of twelve pins for power, but did not have the sense pins, except for the connector on the founders edition RTX 3090 Ti (though not present on the adapter supplied with those cards.)

In 2006, Nvidia's GPU had a 4x performance advantage over other CPUs. In 2018 the Nvidia GPU was 20 times faster than a comparable CPU node: the GPUs were 1.7x faster each year. Moore's law would predict a doubling every two years, however Nvidia's GPU performance was more than tripled every two years, fulfilling Huang's law. [5]
Between 2020 and 2023, there was a worldwide chip shortage affecting more than 169 industries, [1] which led to major price increases, long queues, and reselling among consumers and manufacturers for automobiles, graphics cards, video game consoles, computers, household appliances, and other consumer electronics that require integrated circuits (commonly called "chips").
Thermal Design Power (TDP), also known as thermal design point, is the maximum amount of heat that a computer component (like a CPU, GPU or system on a chip) can generate and that its cooling system is designed to dissipate during normal operation at a non-turbo clock rate (base frequency).
Full GPU virtualization (GVT-g): the GPU is shared by multiple virtual machines (and by the host machine) on a time-sharing basis using a native graphics driver; similar to AMD's MxGPU and Nvidia's vGPU, which are available only on professional line cards (Radeon Pro and Nvidia Quadro)
An Intel Arc A770 16 GB, the highest-end desktop GPU from Intel's first generation Alchemist GPUs, with a Rubik's Cube for scale. Developed under the previous codename "DG2", the first generation of Intel Arc GPUs (codenamed "Alchemist") released on March 30, 2022. [1] [13] It comes in both add-on desktop card and laptop form factors.
The way how it works usually has the following process (refer to the Figure 1. on the right): [1] [2] The Northbridge receives input from Southbridge through the internal bus. The Northbridge signals to CPU through the Front-side bus. The CPU runs the task assignment application (usually the graphics card driver) to determine which GPU core to use.
A GPU cluster is a computer cluster in which each node is equipped with a graphics processing unit (GPU). By harnessing the computational power of modern GPUs via general-purpose computing on graphics processing units (GPGPU), very fast calculations can be performed with a GPU cluster.
