6 Trillion Transistor Superchip

Nvidia's new six-trillion transistor Vera Rubin 'superchip' for AI makes the 92-billion transistor RTX 5090 gaming GPU look positively puny

Every new generation of gpu chips has always been significantly more powerful than the last, but this one takes the cake, with 60x the number of transistors as an RTX 5090, which costs up to $5,000.oo.

CPU chips require high performance transistors that are more expensive, so this gives us a decent idea of how many of the new 2d transistors you can squeeze on a chip. These are extremely large chips for servers, but it means next gen consumer products will commonly contain up to a trillion transistors on a chip, and use less power. Laptops might contain ten petaflops of performance, or more than enough to run the Star Trek Holodeck.

Next gen electronics will be the first step into Wonderland, where anyone can create their own AI on demand.

 

First EM pulse takes it all out.

The smaller things get the more easily they are influenced by external energy, or so it would seem. Best encase everything with Krell shielding.

 

China has advanced graphite bombs. The US has used them once, its just explosives and graphite, but it produces not only an em pulse, but graphite that fouls all your electronics and destroys your generators. Nobody wants to go there and, like the stealth bomber, is a technology reserved for countries that can't afford deterrents.

Sadly, this is the technology the Chinese have been demanding, and Donald Duck has no choice but to cave in to Nvidia.
