China-based cloud and HPC system provider, Shanghai Tianshu Intellectual Semiconductor, has unveiled its first 7nm 'Big Island' GPU-based graphics card. Currently, in mass production, the GPU is set to offer nearly twice the performance mainstream offerings from competitors in half the die area and with much lower power consumption.
During its board meeting, the Founder of the company, Zheng Jinshan, unveiled its Big Island GPU that features a monolithic design. The GPU is based on the TSMC 7nm FinFET process node & has the 2.5D CoWoS design considering it packs the GPU and DRAM on the same die. The GPU is made up of 24 Billion Transistors and features up to 37 TFLOPs of FP32, 147 TFLOPs of FP16/BF16, 371.0 TOPs INT32, 147 TOPs INT16, and 295 TOPs INT8 calculations per second. The exact core specs and clock speeds are unknown but they should be unveiled as the launch closes in.
