Final Specification of Tesla K20 with Kepler GK110 GPU

Final Specification of Tesla K20 with Kepler GK110 GPU tesla k20

NVIDIA Tesla K20 is a professional graphics card, which according to the announcement from May, would utilize the fastest variant of Kepler GK110 GPU. Few days ago first details regarding its final specification have leaked.

The site called CADnetwork has added a new Tesla K20 card option to their GPU Rack ProViz G13. According to that source the Tesla K20 would feature 2496 CUDA cores packed in 13 SMXs, which is a lesser than expected 2880 cores (theoretically this GPU could be packed with more cores). This information has been removed from the site and the only information left is the price of 2950 EUR. As for the detailed specification, card would be offered with 5GB of ECC-GDDR5 memory. The GPU itself is clocked at 705 MHz, which provides around 3.52 TFLOPS of a single precision computing power and 1.17 TFLOPS in double precision. Overall power consumption is slightly higher than GK104-based GeForce GTX 680 — 225 watts. The memory bandwidth is nothing shocking while it’s reported at 200 GB/s, so we can assume that if the card is using 320-bit interface, then the clock should be something around 5 GHz.

Tesla K20 should be available worldwide in about a month. First units were already sent to Oak Ridge National Laboratory. But so far they received just a small batch of cards from 13,592 ordered.

    Typo: the itself gpu….

    256 bit for a HPC card? if this is true thats disappointing for a card of its class. These are supposed to be low yield high margin cards…. yields are even worst than expected?

  • http://videocardz.com/ VideoCardz.com

    If that’s 384-bit then the memory clock is 4.1666 GHz. I would stick to 6.25 GHz.

  • Nigel Harris

    If its 256bit with up to 5gb then nvidia are mixing memory controllers again like 2gb 192bit -> GTX660 Ti and GTX660.

    Oh, why it’s only 256-bit? In should have a 384-bit bus or 1750 (7000) MHz memory clock to work as fast as possible. And I think GPU clock must be 1000 MHz for maximum performance.

    GTX 660TI» 192×6/8=144
    Tesla K20» ?x5/8=200 » ?=320-Bit

  • skr13

    Both are possible:
    »2500MHzx(320/8)x2= 200000 MHz (200 GB/s)

    »3125MHzx(256/8)x2= 200000 MHz (200 GB/s)

  • MOSLER

    So, then they using a PCB from GTX 570 with 32-bit bus, right? Or not? Or they designed a new PCB?

    so much expensive than it worth

  • ZoSo

    256 bit bus???

  • BestJinjo

    But can it play Crysis 3 maxed out? :)

  • Raghar

    320-bit interface?

  • ZoSo

    quoting the NV whitepaper:

    ” A full Kepler GK110 implementation includes 15 SMX units and six 64‐bit memory controllers. Different products will use different configurations of GK110. For example, some products may deploy 13 or 14 SMXs.”

    So a fully unlocked GK110 is: 6×64=384 bit

  • Raghar

    3 SMX/memory controler would make sense. 5 SMX/2 memory controllers can happen only when that memory controller is 128-bit.

    Then again it might be concurrent two channel copy/execute controller. When it would be so, they should call it dual channel 128-bit controller, not two 64-bit controllers.

  • MOSLER

    It’s NOT for games, but I think it can,

  • http://www.facebook.com/quinnfitz Quinn FitzGerald

    yes

  • http://www.facebook.com/quinnfitz Quinn FitzGerald

    it is indeed 320 bit bus

    some have speculated the full 15 SMX’s are a total of 384 bit bus and that the loss of the two SMX’s also removed a 64-bit bus

  • http://www.facebook.com/quinnfitz Quinn FitzGerald

    320 bit bus (well, 384, but one 64-bit control disabled)

  • rob

    its simple math to see that its a 320 bit bus since it has 200 gb/s of bandwidth and 5000 mhz memory.
