Nvidia unveils next-gen Pascal GPUs which give you a triple dose: Smaller, Faster and More efficient

Nvidia has unveiled the Pascal series of GPUs which will debut in 2016, so don’t hold your breath.

Nvidia collaborated with IBM to create a new faster GPU-CPU interconnect, enabling GPUs and CPUs to communicate 5-12 times faster than they can now. GPU-CPU communication is an essential part of supercomputing and such a development can increase development by leaps and bounds in the field. How fast? 80 GB per second. The current 16 GB per second seems paltry compared to this.
