Inside the GB200 Grace Blackwell Superchip
According to the report, the AI chipmaker's GB200 Grace Blackwell superchip combines two Blackwell B200 GPUs and a Grace CPU, which is interconnected through NVLINK to create a unified memory domain with up to 896GB of accessible memory. This latest architecture lets the system to scale up to 512 GPUs within a single NVLINK domain, which enables massive parallel processing and high throughput for demanding AI workloads, as reported by Barchart.
The GB200 is designed for both training and inference of large language models, as it delivers up to 30 times the inference performance of previous generations, along with major gains in power efficiency due to liquid-cooled racks and optimized data processing capabilities, according to the Barchart report. The GB200's ability to process massive amounts of data at lightning speed makes it appropriate for applications ranging from scientific research to enterprise-scale AI, and its mass production at a rate of 1,000 systems per week is reportedly an unprecedented achievement in the supercomputing industry, accoridng to the report.
