In a benchmark of producing 16 images per device, Gaudi2 outperformed the H100 GPU by 56 percent in speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Specifically, the Gaudi2 achieved a remarkable speed of 927 images per second, while the H100 recorded 595 images per second, with the A100 following at 381 images per second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the cluster sizes increased, the disparity in performance became more pronounced. A cluster of 256 Gaudi2 chips managed 12,654 images per second, equating to 49.4 images per device. On the other hand, an A100 cluster reached 3,992 images per second, or 15.6 images per second per device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"507\" src=\"https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Intel-Gaudi2-vs-NVIDIA-H100-Unveiling-the-Fastest-AI-Chip-1024x507.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14808\" srcset=\"https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Intel-Gaudi2-vs-NVIDIA-H100-Unveiling-the-Fastest-AI-Chip-1024x507.webp 1024w, https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Intel-Gaudi2-vs-NVIDIA-H100-Unveiling-the-Fastest-AI-Chip-300x149.webp 300w, https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Intel-Gaudi2-vs-NVIDIA-H100-Unveiling-the-Fastest-AI-Chip-768x380.webp 768w, https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Intel-Gaudi2-vs-NVIDIA-H100-Unveiling-the-Fastest-AI-Chip-150x74.webp 150w, https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Intel-Gaudi2-vs-NVIDIA-H100-Unveiling-the-Fastest-AI-Chip.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>However, Stability AI noted that the A100 chips outperformed in efficiency thanks to TensorRT technology, with a 40 percent performance edge over Gaudi2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stability AI intends to incorporate the Intel Gaudi2 chip into its Stability Cloud platform shortly. These performance tests highlight that NVIDIA, a leader in the industry, now has a serious contender in Intel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What are your thoughts on these tests?
