Modern GPU Architecture — Volume 2: Acceleration, Integration, and Physical Design
A modern GPU is no longer just a graphics processor.
It is a compute engine, AI accelerator, ray-tracing machine, video processor, interconnect fabric, synchronization system, thermal design problem, and silicon product — all in one.
Volume 1 showed how the graphics pipeline becomes hardware.
Volume 2 shows how that hardware becomes a complete modern GPU.
This volume moves beyond the geometry-to-pixels pipeline and into the accelerators, system engines, performance limits, and physical-design realities that define modern GPU architecture.
If you want to understand compute dispatch, tensor cores, ray-tracing units, synchronization, memory ordering, advanced rendering, video engines, interconnects, performance counters, timing closure, packaging, and emerging accelerator design, this book connects them into one coherent system.
Inside Volume 2, you will learn:
-
How GPU compute architecture launches and schedules massively parallel kernels
-
How occupancy, registers, shared memory, warp slots, and barriers limit resident work
-
How tensor and matrix accelerators use tiling, systolic datapaths, mixed precision, and sparsity
-
How ray-tracing hardware performs BVH traversal, primitive testing, ray scheduling, and shader integration
-
How barriers, fences, atomics, cache coherence, and memory ordering preserve correctness
-
How mesh shaders, VRS, deferred rendering, display engines, video engines, and interconnects fit into the larger GPU
-
How counters, roofline limits, workload signatures, power, and thermals shape performance
-
How floorplanning, synthesis, timing closure, place-and-route, DFT, packaging, and chiplet integration turn architecture into silicon
-
Where GPU architecture is heading as AI accelerators, new memory systems, and post-Moore scaling reshape the field
This book is for readers who want the layer beneath the marketing terms.
Not just “tensor cores are fast,” but how matrix acceleration changes datapaths, precision, memory layout, and scheduling.
Not just “ray tracing uses RT cores,” but how traversal, primitive intersections, coherence, sorting, and shader handoff fit into hardware.
Not just “GPUs are massively parallel,” but how synchronization, resource allocation, interconnect congestion, and thermal limits decide whether that parallelism survives.
This book is for you if you are:
-
A hardware or computer-engineering student moving beyond CPU architecture
-
An FPGA, RTL, or ASIC learner studying GPU-like design
-
A graphics programmer who wants to understand the silicon behind modern rendering
-
A CUDA, HPC, or AI performance reader who wants the hardware layer below kernels and libraries
-
An early-career engineer who wants a map of how GPU blocks connect, scale, and become manufacturable
Most books explain one slice of the GPU.
This volume connects the slices.
Compute, tensor acceleration, ray tracing, synchronization, rendering, video, interconnect, performance, physical design, and future accelerator trends are treated as parts of one machine — not isolated buzzwords.
If Volume 1 is the graphics pipeline foundation, Volume 2 is the complete systems view.
Read it to understand how acceleration, integration, and physical design turn modern GPU architecture into real silicon.

Derecho al desistimiento
Si es un consumidor, puede rescindir el contrato de acuerdo con lo siguiente. Por consumidor se entiende cualquier persona física que actúe con fines ajenos a su actividad comercial, empresarial, oficio o profesión.
Información sobre el derecho de desistimiento
Derecho legal de desistimiento
Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).
Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que envíe su comunicación relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.
Efectos del desistimiento
Si rescinde este contrato, le reembolsaremos todos los pagos que hayamos recibido de usted, incluidos los gastos de envío (excepto los gastos adicionales que surjan si elige un tipo de envío que no sea el tipo de envío estándar más económico que ofrecemos).
Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a más tardar, 14 días después de que se nos informe de su decisión de rescindir este contrato.
Efectuaremos el reembolso utilizando el mismo medio de pago que utilizó para la transacción inicial, a menos que haya acordado expresamente lo contrario; en cualquier caso, no incurrirá en ningún cargo como resultado de dicho reembolso.
Podremos retener el reembolso hasta que hayamos recibido los bienes o hasta que nos haya presentado una prueba de que los ha devuelto, lo que ocurra primero.
Deberá devolver los bienes o entregarlos a Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, Illinois, U.S.A., sin demoras indebidas y, en cualquier caso, en un plazo máximo de 14 días a partir del día en que nos comunique su desistimiento del presente contrato. El plazo se cumple si devuelve la mercancía antes de que venza el periodo de 14 días. Tendrá que asumir los gastos directos de devolución de los bienes. Usted solo es responsable de la disminución del valor de los bienes como resultado de una manipulación distinta a la necesaria para establecer la naturaleza, las características y el funcionamiento de los bienes.

El derecho de desistimiento no se aplica a lo siguiente:
- La entrega de periódicos, diarios o revistas, con la excepción de los contratos de suscripción; y
- El suministro de contenido digital que no se proporcione en un soporte tangible (por ejemplo, en un CD o DVD) si, al hacer el pedido, aceptó que podíamos empezar a entregarlo y que no podría desistir una vez iniciada la entrega.
Condiciones de envío
