And keep an eye on Arm as they continue to push the boundaries of visual computing with their latest GPUs and platforms.Arm is revolutionizing the world of mobile computing with its Arm Total Compute Solutions 2023 (TCS23). This platform offers the best premium solution for smartphones, delivering a complete package of the latest intellectual property designed and optimized for specific workloads to work seamlessly together as a complete system. The new Armv9 Cortex CPU compute cluster is a vital part of this high-performance cluster, delivering double-digit performance gains alongside significant efficiency improvements for the third consecutive year. The new Arm Cortex-X4, a fourth-generation Cortex-X core, is the fastest CPU that Arm has ever built, bringing 15% more performance compared to the Cortex-X3. Meanwhile, the new power-efficient microarchitecture consumes 40% less power than Cortex-X3 on the same process. These performance and efficiency gains bring on-device experiences, like UI responsiveness and application launch time, to the next level and enable next-gen AI and ML-based applications. Arm is committed to bringing premium graphics features to a wider market of consumer devices quicker with its new Arm Mali-G720 and Mali-G620 GPUs. Arm’s CPU performance leadership extends to Arm’s new big and LITTLE cores – the Arm Cortex-A720 and Cortex-A520. Arm is focusing on tighter coupling on process nodes and compute capabilities, partnering deeper with TSMC by taping out the Cortex-X4 on the TSMC N3E process – an industry first. Arm’s ecosystem is ready to maximize the PPA benefits of its processor technologies once they are taped out. Arm is committed to smartphone performance and will invest heavily in key IP, such as the Krake GPU and the Blackhawk CPU, to deliver the compute and graphics performance its partners demand.
Today, Arm announced the launch of their latest, fifth-generation graphics processor unit (GPU), Immortalis-G720. This latest product offering is packed with advanced features and teeming with performance that promises to make it the most talked-about GPU on the market.
Generation 5 of Arm’s Immortis-G720 GPU brings ground-breaking technology such as Ray-tracing, Enhanced Compression, Adaptive Reflection, and improved performance in terms of instruction throughput, memory bandwidth, and operations per second, to name a few.
The design of the Immortis-G720 GPU is based on a revolutionary new architecture; it is the first to use a combination of both SIMT (Single Instruction Multiple Threads) and SMT (Simultaneous Multi-Threads) execution. The combination of these two enhancements results in improved parallel efficiency, allowing for faster performance without sacrificing power.
The GPU’s Ray-Tracing technology drastically reduces rendering times by tracing light rays in real-time, resulting in smoother lighting and more accurate reflections. Enhanced Compression is also a part of the GPU’s make-up; it is designed to reduce bandwidth utilization, resulting in power savings while improving overall performance. The Immortis-G720 also features Adaptive Reflection technology, which improves the accuracy of reflections in real-time, resulting in more lifelike visuals.
Performance-wise, the Immortis-G720 is capable of up to 2.4 teraflops of performance, promising thousands of GigaFLOPS through the use of its multi-threaded cores. The processor also has a 7.7 GB/s memory bandwidth and supports up to 16GB of RAM.
The fifth-generation Immortalis-G720 GPU from Arm is set to hit the market soon, with pricing enabled in the near future. With its combination of cutting-edge features and performance, it is sure to become the most talked-about GPU of the year.
