AMD Instinct MI200 will be equipped with 256 CUs and 128GB HBM2e

At the 49th Global Technology, Media, and Communications Conference held by JP Morgan Chase last month, AMD CEO Dr. Lisa Su confirmed that the GPU with the DNA 2 architecture codenamed Aldebaran will be launched within this year. This computing card, probably called the Instinct MI200, is specifically designed for computing-intensive and HPC workloads.

The US Department of Energy’s Frontier E-class supercomputer that will be delivered this year will use this computing card, and the Instinct MI200 computing card is rumored to have 128GB of HBM2e video memory. Previously, through the Linux update patch driven by AMD 64 EDAC, it has been confirmed that the Instinct MI200 computing card will adopt MCM (Multi-Chip-Module) packaging technology, two computing chips are used in a single chip package and interconnected through the next generation of Infinity Fabric bus technology.
