At Computex 2024, NVIDIA announced a new Vera Rubin GPU architecture. What started as a talk about artificial intelligence took a turn when NVIDIA talked about updating its data center chip architecture.
The new NVIDIA architecture will use newer HBM4 memory. The company announced that the Rubin GPU will receive 8 HBM4 memory stacks, and later it plans to release Rubin Ultra chips with 12 HBM4 stacks.
In addition, NVIDIA plans to introduce a successor to the Grace Hopper and Grace Blackwell superchips in the form of a new Vera Rubin board with Vera processor (VR200), which combines the GPU and CPU into a superchip. NVIDIA hasn't revealed many specifications and details yet, but it is known that the platform will support new NVLink 6 connections at speeds of up to 3600 GB/s, and CX9 SuperNIC network connections up to 1600 Gbit/s.
NVIDIA also announced the Blackwell Ultra chip, aka the GB200 GPU with support for 12 HBM3E memory stacks, which will increase the supported memory from 192 GB to 244 GB. No graphics cards based on Blackwell architecture have been announced; the B100 and B200 are tentatively expected to be released this year.
