NVIDIA ships so many accelerators that deliveries are measured in hundreds of tons

NVIDIA continues to gain momentum. The company’s shipments are quite impressive, and revenue has skyrocketed

NVIDIA actively ships a variety of solutions. Not only is there the legendary GeForce RTX 4090, but also more modest models, as well as enterprise solutions.

Analytics firm Omdia suggested measuring NVIDIA deliveries in tons rather than conventional units. 

There is the following slide: “more than 900 tons — weight of H100 GPUs shipped in Q2 2023”. Usually, the H100 is used for artificial intelligence workloads.

Omdia expects NVIDIA to be able to ship around 3,600 tons of accelerators in a year (assuming that shipments remain at the same level in the coming quarters). In terms of units, that is more than a million accelerators. As noted, this is still not enough to satisfy demand.
