Context Before
Source: SemiAnalysis AI TCO Model ↗
The MI4XX currently has a performance per TCO advantage based on marketed dense FLOPS over VR. VR has a higher TCO per GPU compared to MI4XX, yet VR marketed PFLOPs are lower vs MI4XX resulting in a TCO per PFLOP disadvantage for the VR vs MI4XX.
Evidence
Context After
As always, one caveat is that this comparison is done based on a marketed dense PFLOP basis. Effective dense PFLOP (i.e. the real world chip throughput) can differ based on Model Flops Utilization % (MFU), and in general we have seen NVIDIA chip operate at a higher MFU % vs AMD chips, suggesting that performance per TCO based on effective dense PFLOPs could be better for NVIDIA systems vs AMD – however, MFU is dependent on actual workloads with no one-size-fits-all MFU % that is consistently applicable to either systems.
Indeed, real world use of FP4 Sparsity will probably not reach 50 PFLOPS but it will probably deliver better effective FLOPs than FP4 Dense, but we have yet to evaluate what that real-world performance could be. Running VR NVL72 on 1800W would probably mean lower FP4 Sparse FLOPs than on 2300W.
