News from this site on March 6. Recently, reports related to NVIDIA’s CUDA (parallel computing platform) compatibility have appeared on the Internet, which is considered to be “prohibiting third-party companies from being CUDA compatible.”
According to foreign media Tom's Hardware, a certain clause in the EULA (End User License Agreement) of NVIDIA CUDA 11.6 and later versions mentions, "You cannot reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble for use. Any results generated by this SDK will be translated on non-NVIDIA platforms."
In response, domestic GPU manufacturer Moore Thread officially issued a statement stating that its MUSA/MUSIFY does not involve the relevant terms of NVIDIA EULA. Developers can use it with confidence.
Moore Thread stated that MUSA is a full-featured GPU advanced computing unified system architecture independently developed by Moore Thread, with all intellectual property rights, integrating software and hardware, and has nothing to do with CUDA. Any dependencies.
MUSIFY is a development tool provided by Moore Thread to the majority of MUSA developers. It facilitates users to transplant and develop applications on the MUSA computing platform. It allows developers to convert their C source code into MUSA C source code is then compiled through the MUSA compiler MCC to generate binary code based on the MUSA instruction set, which is finally run on a Moore thread full-featured GPU.
It is worth mentioning that there is a third-party open source project "ZLUDA" that allows AMD GPUs to run NVIDIA CUDA applications. As previously reported by this site, AMD GPU performance was approximately 10-20% faster than native ROCm/HIP support in Blender 4.0 rendering tests.
The above is the detailed content of NVIDIA bans third-party companies from being CUDA compatible? Moore Thread responded that it was not affected. For more information, please follow other related articles on the PHP Chinese website!

This website reported on July 24 that recently, Moore Thread and Baidu Maps signed a strategic cooperation agreement. Both parties will leverage their respective advantages in technology and products to jointly promote technological innovation in digital twin maps. According to the cooperation agreement, the two parties will focus on the construction of the digital twin map project, taking advantage of Baidu Map's map engine advantages, digital twin technology advantages, map big data application advantages, and the 3D graphics rendering and AI computing technology advantages of Moore's thread full-featured GPU to actively carry out In-depth and extensive continuous cooperation will jointly promote the application and large-scale implementation of digital twin map solutions. According to the official introduction of Moore Thread, map data is a key asset of the country, and digital twin maps especially highlight its importance in high-load rendering scenarios, which has a significant impact on the rendering performance and performance of GPUs.

1. A brief history of Moore's threads: Lightspeed Entrepreneurship takes full advantage. Today, we already have relatively mature independent CPU processors, NAND flash memory, DRAM memory, and OS operating systems. As a very critical part of the computing platform, GPU graphics cards have There have always been serious shortcomings, mainly because it is not only extremely difficult in hardware design, but also ecological cultivation is even more difficult, and it cannot be achieved overnight. There are actually quite a few domestic GPU companies, but many of them are limited to specific industry fields or are oriented to high-performance computing. Those who truly dare to make a comprehensive layout and enter the consumer market cannot but mention MooreThread. On May 31, Moore Line sent an invitation to Kuai Technology for its 2023 summer press conference.

ScalingLaw continues to show results, and the computing power can hardly keep up with the expansion of large models. "The larger the scale, the higher the computing power, and the better the effect" has become an industry standard. It only took one year for mainstream large models to jump from tens of billions to 1.8 trillion parameters. Giants such as META, Google, and Microsoft have also been building ultra-large clusters with more than 15,000 cards starting in 2022. "Wanka has become the standard for the main battlefield of AI." However, in China, there are only a handful of nationally produced GPU Wanka clusters. There is a super large-scale Wanka cluster with super versatility, which is a gap in the industry. When the domestic GPU Wanka WanP cluster made its debut, it naturally attracted widespread attention in the industry. On July 3, Moore Thread announced its AI flagship product in Shanghai

According to news from this website on July 22, Moore Thread today released the graphics card driver with version number v260.70.2. This update supports the game "Zero Zero" and fixes the missing probabilistic rendering of the game launch lobby and in-game scenes and other issues. At the same time, the new driver focuses on improving the performance of many popular games including "LEGO Legends", "Survival Island: Legend of the Fountain of Youth" and "Hymn of Babel". In addition, the new driver has also specially optimized the performance of some DirectX11 games. For example, the average frame rate of "Expedition: Mud Run Game" has increased by more than 150%, and the average frame rate of "Project Zero 2: Apocalypse Party" has increased by about 150%. Graphics card users can download the latest version v2 by visiting the Moore Thread official website

According to news from this site on July 28, Moore Thread launched a desktop computer host called "Intelligent Entertainment Mofang" on June 30 last year, claiming to "focus on the gaming field". Today the official launch of the "i5-14400F" for the machine +32GBRAM+1TB+MTTS80 graphics card” configuration, the product page shows that the price is 7,099 yuan. It is reported that the gaming computer uses a 10-core 16-thread Core i5-14400F processor, a B760I landing ship motherboard, a running memory of 32GBDDR43200Mhz, and a built-in PCIe4.01TBSSD. For specific specifications, please refer to JD.com parameters as follows: In terms of GPU, "Intelligent Entertainment Mofang" "The gaming computer uses Moore Thread's own MTTS80 graphics card, which is equipped with

According to news from this site on September 2, Moore Thread cooperated with Sobey to demonstrate the "domesticated global ultra-clear solution" at the 31st Beijing International Radio, Film and Television Exhibition. Based on the full-featured Moore thread GPU, Sobey's MetaClipPro non-linear editing system and graphic packaging system can run stably in the domestic environment. ▲Picture source Moore Thread public account, the same as below. This site learned that through joint development, the two parties have successfully realized the localization of the entire chain from software, CPU, operating system to GPU. Sobey has also launched a number of domestic solutions equipped with Haiguang 3330 series and Haiguang 7000 series CPUs, Galaxy Kirin operating system and Moore thread full-featured GPUs.
