NVidia Kepler GK110 Architecture Whitepaper

If you’re interested in the new Kepler GK110 processor from NVidia, then definitely check out this new architecture whitepaper they’ve released.

Comprising 7.1 billion transistors, Kepler GK110 is not only the fastest, but also the most architecturally complex microprocessor ever built. Adding many new innovative features focused on compute performance, GK110 was designed to be a parallel processing powerhouse for Tesla® and the HPC market.

Kepler GK110 will provide over 1 TFlop of double precision throughput with greater than 80% DGEMM efficiency versus 60‐65% on the prior Fermi architecture.
