NVIDIA GA107

NVIDIA's GA107 GPU uses the Ampere architecture and is made using a 8 nm production process at Samsung. GA107 supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (Feature Level 12_2). For GPU compute applications, OpenCL version 3.0 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 2560 shading units, 80 texture mapping units and 32 ROPs. Also included are 256 tensor cores which help improve the speed of machine learning applications. The GPU also contains 32 raytracing acceleration cores.
