Moore Threads has announced its new workstation GPU, the MTT X300. This card is designed to replace the first-gen MTT S50 and features significant upgrades for professional workloads.
The MTT X300 boasts specifications identical to the gaming-focused MTT S80, which is also the first PCI-E 5.0 GPU in the world. It is likely that the X300 is a variant of the S80, but with different firmware and drivers tailored for professional applications.
MTT X300 Specifications
The MTT X300 features:
- 4096 Musa Cores (twice the S50)
- 16 GB GDDR6 memory (twice the S50)
- 448 GB/s memory bandwidth
- PCI-E Gen 5.0 interface
- 255W TDP (three times higher than the S50)
- 14.4 TFLOPS FP32 performance (vs. 5.2 TFLOPS on the S50)
The dimensions are listed as 285mm x 112mm x 49mm, identical to the MTT S80, though it’s possible the final version will have a slimmer design.
Features and Performance
The X300 supports x86, Arm, and LoongArch architectures, and is optimized for GIS applications. It can handle 36 channels of 1080p@30Fps for video encoding and decoding. It supports various video codecs, including AV1, H.264, H.265, VP8, VP9, AVS, AVS2, MPEG4, and MPEG2.
Moore Threads claims the MTT X300 is up to:
- 2.0x faster than the S50 in GLMark2
- 2.9x faster in Glx-Gears
- 2.8x faster in Unigine Heaven
It supports up to 8K displays and can drive four monitors simultaneously.
Pricing and availability information is yet to be announced.
