NVIDIA Announces “World’s Most Powerful Chip,” the Next-Generation AI Semiconductor B200 GPU

In March 2024, NVIDIA, a leading semiconductor company, announced the launch of the next-generation AI semiconductor “Blackwell B200” GPU.

 

What is B200?

 

“Blackwell B200” is a combination of two chips of the same size as the company’s previous products, and the number of transistors that greatly affect performance is 208 billion, compared to 80 billion in the previous main product “H100”. Approximately 2.6 times.

 

What is the price of B200?

 

The B200 is expected to ship in the latter half of 2024, and while pricing is still unclear, it is expected to be higher than the “H100” and “H200.”

 

However, the announcement that major cloud service providers such as Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft, Open AI, and Oracle are expected to adopt this new semiconductor underscores the significant impact this technology will have on the industry.

 

NVIDIA is not only accelerating the advancement of AI technology but is also solidifying its position as a key player in the industrial sector.

 

As the processing power of GPUs improves, there is no doubt that AI will be increasingly utilized. The development of generative AI is also expected to increase the production of content that requires substantial data volumes, such as videos and music, which were previously difficult to generate. Thus, the demand for data centers is expected to continue rising.

We will continue to monitor industry trends.
