We have spent several years seeing as Moore's law is coming to an end, the process towards new generations of CPUs and GPUs is becoming slower and the benefits are reduced to each generation, something that makes some users despair at the slow progress that is being lived. Nvidia does not want to give in to the end of Moore's law and is already planning new multi-chip designs for its GPUs.

Nvidia GPUs of the future will be multi-chip

Nvidia wants to push its products beyond the limits of silicon, the company's research is now focused on developing a new GPU concept that is based on a multi-chip design, something that has already been seen several times in the processors but that in graphics cards has been limited to models with two or more graphics cores. The graphics giant's intention is to create new modular GPUs that act as a single piece of silicon for excellent performance and far superior to today.

The universities of Arizona and Texas are working together with Nvidia and the Barcelona supercomputing center to create a multi-chip GPU design that can work seamlessly with a highly scalable, high-speed interconnect system. This design would give Nvidia a great advantage since it could exceed the limit of silicon and would have a very modular base design with which to add units to create very powerful final designs.

Nvidia currently believes that this technology would allow it to create a performance level within 10% of a hypothetical super-scalar GPU with the same CUDA Cores number and bandwidth, something that is impossible to achieve without multi-chip technology..

AMD has also opted for the scalability of its products thanks to the Infinity Fabric bus, which is present in its Vega graphics as well as in the processors based on the Zen microarchitecture.
