Microsoft's Holographic Processing Unit

did they really print DDR3 and the words compute on it wow thats stupid lol

wtf I love microsoft now

>>56242945
>1 TFLOP @ 10W
lol that's pretty shitty. GPUs and phones can do much better than that.
unless this is not a GPU-like core, like a RISC core. though I'm willing to bet it's just a simple RISC core with a shit load of SIMD to do the graphics shit

>>56243037
It's basically a coprocessor, the main SoC is an Intel Atom. The Atom is the one that does the graphics, this one only processes data.

>>56243152
Hmm, that's pretty good. The NVIDIA Tegra X1 can do 0.5 TFLOPS with FP32 and 1 TFLOP at FP16 with 10W typical power consumption, though this actually has an ARM SoC.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tegra#Tegra_X1

If MS's shit can do FP32 at 1 TFLOP for real shader-like code, i'm impressed, but I seriously doubt they just made something better than NVIDIA's shit on their first try.

>>56243004
You love Tensilica actually.

>>56242945
The kind of sorcery where they want to a 3rd party and said
>hey we need something that does this
>what do you have?
Then Cadence responded
>here have this DSP with a bunch of Tensilica cores on it

>>56243310
>believing Nvidia's lies
Throttling kicks in and the chip can't maintain its clocks. Thats why it pulls 20w or more in the Nvidia goy TV box.

>>56242945
>1GB
You mean 1 GiB.
>8MB
You mean 8 MiB.

>>56243310
>NVIDIA Tegra X1
Maybe the new Parker version will have a chance, but the X1 was complete shit.

what's cool here is that they didn't use an off-the shelf GPU.
ASICs are crazy expensive for low volume production.

>>56243310
>FP16
lol

>>56246420
Well, the HoloLens dev kits are crazy expensive as well.

>its 1.5 tflops more than the xbox one g-guys
>little christian cross one the corner of that statement
>"1.5 tflops of fp16 compute"

how much is it REALLY in fp32?

im asking about the parker SoC not the X1's "9w lmao" thing

>>56242945
What does Master Chiefs look like?

>>56242945
>>24 physical cores
>>draws under 10W
it's nothing special, the higher the clocks the exponentially more power you need.
so going down in clock speed can get you solid performance for 1/4 the power.
that's why a quadcore laptop can use 45 watts turbo boosting to 3.6ghz, but only 15-20 watts at 2.6ghz

>>56242945

can that hlep me play muh gaymes

>>56248659
prolly just a cortana accelerator, microsoft is useless and self indulgent

>>56242945
ASIC's always look impressive.

>>56244007
The HPU is a semi-custom design, though.

>>56242945
Sounds interesting.
What's it's ghz?

>>56248659
reducing the clock speed also reduces your FLOPS though
