NVIDIA GA103
NVIDIA's GA103 GPU uses the Ampere architecture and is made using a 8 nm production process at Samsung. GA103 supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (Feature Level 12_2). For GPU compute applications, OpenCL version 2.0 and CUDA 8.6 can be used. Additionally, the DirectX 12 Ultimate capability guarantees support for hardware-raytracing, variable-rate shading and more, in upcoming video games. It features 8192 shading units, 256 texture mapping units and 96 ROPs. Also included are 256 tensor cores which help improve the speed of machine learning applications. The GPU also contains 64 raytracing acceleration cores.
