NVIDIA L40S
The Ada-generation utility GPU: inference, fine-tuning and graphics without HBM.
You're looking at a chip record: what this processor is, its key specs, who designs, manufactures and supplies its parts, and where it gets used.
Built on the AD102 gaming-class die with 48 GB of GDDR6, the L40S serves the mid-market: inference on small and mid-size models, fine-tuning, rendering and virtual workstations. It shows the stack below the flagship training parts — no HBM, no NVLink, PCIe only, but far cheaper and widely available.
