Amd zen 3 and nvidia volta will feed the perlmutter exascale computer
Table of contents:
It appears that both AMD and NVIDIA will team up to power the Perlmutter Exascale supercomputer. Designed by CRAY, the supercomputer would pave the way for large-scale computing, but what's most interesting about this supercomputer is the fact that it will use AMD and NVIDIA's next-generation products under the hood, using the new 'Milan' architecture from AMD based on Zen 3 and the use of NVIDIA Volta GPUs.
Perlmutter Exascale unites the power of AMD EPYC Milan processors and NVIDIA Volta-Next GPUs
The new supercomputer was discussed in a presentation by the United States Department of Energy, which claimed that both AMD and next-generation NVIDIA hardware would power it. During the Supercomputing 2018 event, CRAY unveiled its Shasta Computer Blade server, which will be used as the main platform within the supercomputer. We can expect thousands of nodes inside the new supercomputer with AMD and NVIDIA chips.
Going into the details, the displayed computer appears to be fully water-cooled that will be able to house 8 of AMD's next-generation 'Milan' EPYC processors. The system is divided into two sections: one with copper water blocks on the Milan CPUs and the other four CPUs on an inverted PCB, also water-cooled. There are a total of 64 DIMM slots that are also water-cooled.
The Milan CPU used in the supercomputer is based on the new Zen 3 architecture, of which there is still no commercial version. The chip is made with a TSMC 7nm + node.
NVIDIA's 'Volta-Next' based GPU will deliver most of the computing power in the supercomputer. Each node will contain 4 Volta-Next GPUs. The Volta-Next nomenclature means that the GPU will be the successor to Volta and will offer more than 7.0 compute TFLOPs (GV100 currently does 7.5 TFLOPs), more than 32GB of next-generation VRAM HBM2, and NVLINK for fast interconnection between GPUs.
This curious union, currently rivals, will feed the Perlmutter Exascale supercomputer, which should be arriving in 2020.
