Still, everybody seems to have forgotten that Ampere already launched earlier this year for the HPC market. NVIDIA announced three Ampere based graphics cards. While it was no secret that the new GPUs would be based on Ampere, we've seen much discussion about fabrication nodes, architecture, and specifications. NVIDIA has a track record of naming their GPU architectures after mathematicians and physicists or prominent figures from closely related fields, to name a few Pascal, Fermi, Kepler, Maxwell and, more recently, Turing. But the GPU is named after André-Marie Ampère, a French mathematician and physicist, considered the father of electrodynamics. Ampere, of course, is the base unit of electric current in the international system of units.
