Intel Gaudi 3 Chip: 50% Faster Than Nvidia H100 in Large Language Model Training

Intel has unveiled its next-generation Gaudi 3 chip at the Vision event, aiming to disrupt Nvidia's dominance in the artificial intelligence semiconductor market. According to Intel, the Gaudi 3 chip delivers a performance boost of 50% over Nvidia's previous-generation H100 processor when training specific large language models. Additionally, it shows enhanced speed in generative AI inference computations for certain test models.

Jeni Barovian, Intel's Vice President of Strategic and Product Management, commented, “Our customers want options in the industry. They expect Intel to lead in computing by delivering solutions that meet the demands of the generative AI wave.” Intel is focused on developing high-performance chips and the necessary software, while Nvidia currently holds about 83% of the data center chip market in 2023.

The Gaudi 3 features two integrated main processing chips, capable of more than doubling the performance of its predecessor. This design allows it to connect with thousands of other chips, providing formidable computing power.

The Gaudi 3 chip is expected to be available to server manufacturers such as Supermicro and Hewlett Packard Enterprise in the second quarter of this year.
