The CHIP Dataset

We provide a dataset with 2185 CPUs and 2668 GPUs to help researchers understand the development trend of CPUs and GPUs.

Here are some interesting findings:

  • Moore's Law still holds, especially in GPUs.
  • Dannard Scaling is still valid in general.
  • CPUs have higher frequencies, but GPUs are catching up.
  • GPU performance doubles every 1.5 years.
  • GPU performance improvement is a joint effect of smaller transistors, larger die size, and higher frequency.
  • High-end GPUs tends to first use new semiconductor technologies. Low-end GPUs may use old technologies for a few years.
