Higher Rack Level Densities
Cutting edge AI and HPC requires the highest performance versions of the latest CPUs and GPUs – such as NVIDIA’s V100 GPUs and Intel’s Xeon Scalable Processors. These chip wattages translate into substantially higher wattage densities at both the node-level and rack-level because of the component wattages and the requirement for the shortest possible signal distance between processors, GPUs, switches both in and between cluster racks.
