NVIDIA is possibly making its fastest GPU, the Ampere A100, even faster with twice the memory capacity and record-breaking memory bandwidth. This is acknowledged by NVIDIA's own listing that has been discovered by Videocardz.

The existing NVIDIA A100 HPC accelerator was introduced last year in June and it looks like the green team is planning to give it a major spec upgrade. The chip is based on NVIDIA's largest Ampere GPU, the A100, which measures 826mm2 and houses an insane 54 billion transistors. NVIDIA gives its HPC accelerators a spec boost during mid-cycle which means that we will be hearing about the next-generation accelerators at GTC 2022.
