everyone so we're at GTC 2018 and right now I'm in front of a $400,000 basically supercomputer most of that cost of course comes from system memory 1.5 terabytes of that so we just wanted to show this off and talk through it can't really get into too much of pulling it apart or anything like that but we have an exploded version here with the cover removed it's got 16 V 100's in it and then you can see the cooling apparatus we'll call it on top which is just a bunch of aluminum fans if you have a couple copper blocks up front and then 16 of these aluminum fin stacks or on top of the V 100's underneath so that's the core specs before that this video is brought to you by Corsairs new dark core RGB se Mouse the dark poor RGB se is a wireless gaming mouse rated for up to 24 hours of continuous wireless gaming with the LEDs enabled and can be coupled with a Qi charging mouse pad for easy battery charging it has both wireless and Bluetooth antenna so the mouse can be used easily on two systems and switched between them learn more at the link in the description below in terms of power consumption memory things like that and video just announced their v 100 has moved from 16 gigabytes HP m2 to 32 gigabytes of HP m2 which is what's in each one of these totaling for 512 gigabytes of total HP m2 between all the GPUs in the system obviously not a gaming device therefore no gaming announcements but this is still kind of interesting technology so one of the other items to talk about would be power consumption as noted a CPU server system as we understand it skylake or something like that would consume about I think it's a 180 kilowatts was the numbers cited and this is at 10 kilowatts which considering what it does is significantly lower than the CPU equivalent system in terms of other specs at the major announcement from Nvidia in terms of hardware was not a new GPU architecture but the expansion of 32 gigabytes on volta or on the V 100 and then also the NV switch which is in here we have an article on it on the website if you want to learn more about + V switch you can click the article link to the description below but there are 12 MB switches in here they are basically interconnect they connect to all of these 16 GPUs and they function both ways so each GPU can communicate individually with each other GPU out of the total 16 in the system and that's done through envy switch which enables the bandwidth required to push that data it's just under 1 terabyte per second of bandwidth at 50 gigabytes per second per port and I believe there are I want to say 18 ports on Envy switch other specs for the system - Xeon Platinum's in it as noted 1.5 terabytes of system memory and then 30 terabytes of nvme SSD storage as well for local processing this is all supposed to be network attached to the rest of it happens over the network as expected with any type of data center type of device so I think I think that pretty much walks you through it if you want to buy one it's $400,000 I'd put an affiliate link in the description so I can pick up 10,000 of commission if I could but I don't think anyone's gonna buy one either way though that's the new Nvidia stuff we'll talk about more and other coverage subscribe for that as always click the link in the description below for the envy switch article thank you for watching I'll see you all next time
