They consist of superscalar multiprocessors that are massively multithreaded. The NVLink interconnect enables ultra-fast communication between the central processing unit (CPU) and the graphics processing unit (GPU) and between GPUs. POWER8 with NVLink systems incorporate the high-speed differential POWER8 Memory Buffer, which supports several DDR technologies.
