Basically a bunch of Google/Coral Edge TPUs on a single card. Targeting unsigned INT8 inference (requiring a separate compile pass of the TF Lite model, with AFAIR 8 MB of memory for parameters).

The patch seems to disable both the RBs and the CUs for corresponding shader arrays marked as being disabled.

what are the merits of a dual GF110 solution comparing to one using dual GF114's? a single GF114 approaches the GTX 470 performance territory, using less than three fourths of the GF110 die size, (therefore) still having manageable power consumption - could it be just easier to bin...

It's one of the cpuid bits set not only for HyperThreading capable, but - as in the case of the Phenoms in the Heaven screenshots - also for multicore processors: source: http://support.amd.com/us/Processor_TechDocs/25481.pdf

Well, at least it can read the shader count of previous generations of AMD chips: http://www.techpowerup.com/articles/other/155 (560 SP 4830) http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/HIS/Radeon_HD_6850/ (1120 SP 6850) Those two were not "AMD-sanctioned" models, still they carry the same Device...

After beating the "what makes a thread" topic to death, one can get really confused even when looking at relatively simple terms. It just seems to me that plain "superscalar" is quite often mistakenly taken as "OoO superscalar" or - "dynamic superscalar".

Think of the first Pentium - an in-order, superscalar core. The same applies to early UltraSPARCs, Alphas, or even IBM's POWER6 - superscalar, albeit in-order; not VLIW at the same time. But as for VLIW machines, ILP extraction relied on compile time instruction scheduling. Guess some of you...

"A modern GeForce GPU has approximately 1.2 billion transistors [...]" http://anandtech.com/weblog/showpost.aspx?i=453 maybe an average for the GTX variants "enabled" transistor counts (1.0/1.4)?
