Nvidia GPU roadmap confirms it: Moore’s Law is dead and buried

Comment As Jensen Huang is fond of saying, Moore's Law is dead – and at Nvidia GTC this month, the GPU-slinger's chief exec let slip just how deep in the ground the computational scaling law really is.

Standing on stage, Huang revealed not just the chip designer's next-gen Blackwell Ultra processors, but a surprising amount of detail about its next two generations of accelerated computing platforms, including a 600kW rack scale system packing 576 GPUs. We also learned an upcoming GPU family, due to arrive in 2028, will be named after Richard Feynman. Surely you're joking!

It's not that unusual for chipmakers to tease their roadmaps from time to time, but we usually don't get this much information all at once. And that's because Nvidia is stuck. It's run into not just one roadblock but several. Worse, apart from throwing money at the ...
