Chinese GPU chips are catching up with GTX 1080

In addition to CPUs, domestic companies are also beginning to catch up with international standards in the GPU field. A few days ago, Changsha Jingjiawei revealed that the new generation of GPU chips developed by the company is currently in the back-end design, and subsequent progress will be disclosed in regular reports.

Although Jing Jiawei did not disclose what the so-called next-generation GPU is, according to the company's previous information, the next-generation GPU chip should be the JM9 series, which has been developed since 2018.

On the GPU, Jingjiawei currently has two series, JM5 and JM7. Among them, the JM5400 series has been used in Chinese military aircraft to replace /ATI products, and the JM7200 series uses a 28nm process and has similar performance to NVIDIA’s GT640 graphics card. However, the overall power consumption is less than 10W, which is much lower than the latter's 50WTDP, and some orders have been obtained. The next-generation GPU is the JM9 series. In this prospect, Jiawei mentioned in the report that the JM9 series GPU will be replaced with a unified rendering architecture and increase the number of programmable computing modules, in line with the main trends of current graphics cards.

According to the official specifications, the performance of JM9231 can reach the level of low-end products in 2016, and the core frequency of JM9271 is not lower than 1.8GHz, supports PCIe4.0x16, with 16GB HBM memory, bandwidth 512GB/s, floating point performance up to 8TFLOPS, The performance is not lower than the level of GTX1080 and can reach the level of high-end graphics cards at the end of 2017.

Jingjiawei was established in April 2006 with a registered capital of 301 million yuan. It is mainly engaged in the research and development, production and sales of high-reliability electronic products. The products mainly involve the field of display and control, small-scale specialized radar, chip field and others.
