Differences from POWER8?
I can't find much information about POWER8E, is this what IBM refers to as POWER8 with Nvidia NVLink? I get no search results for POWER8E on the OpenPOWER Foundation website. Most of the web results for "POWER8E" are the result of users running cat /proc/cpuinfo
, even though they refer to the processor as plainly POWER8 elsewhere. This Phoronix article for example, does not suggest that POWER8E is any different from POWER8. Torpcoms (talk) 11:36, 2 January 2018 (CST)
- This is especially strange, because the POWER8 page indicates the previous architecture as POWER7 not POWER7+. Unlike POWER8E, the POWER7+ distinction is clearly recognised by IBM. Torpcoms (talk) 11:45, 2 January 2018 (CST)
