Intel has launched its Gaudi 3 accelerator for AI workloads, which uses two chiplets with 64 tensor processor cores, eight matrix multiplication engines, and 96MB of on-die SRAM cache. The processor integrates 24 200 GbE networking interfaces and 14 media engines, and is accompanied by 128GB of HBM2E memory in eight memory stacks. Intel is betting on the lower price and lower total cost of ownership (TCO) of its Gaudi 3 compared to Nvidia's popular H100 and H200 GPUs.
