Together with the mobile processors tegra, the calculations accelerators tesla became for NVIDIA a product, which ensure an increase in the sales volumes even under the crisis conditions . Let us recall that tesla accelerators are expansion cards on base of video chips, adapted for intensive parallel calculations, which support CUDA.
Associate considers that the accelerators tesla has to acquire by the function ECC error correction , which is used everywhere in servers and work stations. The errors in memory work are not so critical for graphic applications, but the accuracy of each operation is important with intensive calculations. .
A similar modernization will result in a change in the design of printed-circuit board and memory controller device , but the increased expenditures will be covered due to the high retail price of tesla accelerators . Video chip are several times faster than processors; therefore, to users it is profitable to take Tesla even at the high prices. The presence of ECC will help NVIDIA to sell more accelerators, since users will be assured in the reliability of systems, built on base Of tesla. Associates consider that ECC support by NVIDIA company can be already injected in next generation video chips .
