According to Koduri, Ponte Vecchio incorporates “7 advanced silicon technologies,” doubtless referring to the whole lot from the 4 totally different course of nodes used to make the chiplets, to reminiscence stacks, and together with the Foveros packaging.
Ponte Vecchio is a keystone challenge for Intel’s GPU division. Along with being the biggest and grandest of their Xe GPUs, the chip will likely be on the coronary heart of the Aurora supercomputer, Intel’s most up-to-date supercomputer win. So lots is using on the chip, and little question Intel’s engineers are desirous to see a profitable power-on take a look at.
