Designed to compete in the artificial intelligence sector, the hardware packs 1.3 peak PFLOPS of FP8 compute power into a 350W thermal envelope. The accelerator features 1.5 TB/s of memory bandwidth and incorporates up to 480 GB of value-oriented LPDDR5X memory. This configuration specifically targets enterprise and agentic artificial intelligence inference workloads by offering high capacity at a competitive power profile.Why it mattersThe rollout of the GPU D-Series r
