Nvidia CEO brings out a monster dual-GPU Blackwell chip at GTC: here's what it tells us about the next GeForce graphics cards
There's a new Nvidia architecture in town, and it's a doozy. Blackwell has just been announced by Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang at GTC and will feature inside the ludicrously large B200 GPU. To call them 'GPUs' would technically be wrong, however. They're dual-GPU packages with a total of 208 billion transistors across them. To put that into perspective, the previous must-have compute chips out of Nvidia, the Hopper H200 and H100, has just over 80 billion transistors. An RTX 4090 has 76.3 million. We're looking at over double that with Blackwell, which makes a lot of sense considering it's dual-wielding GPUs and a new chip-to-chip interconnect.
