The Anatomy of a GPU

A modern AI accelerator comes down to roughly thirty major components. Most are designed in-house by the GPU maker — but the physical parts trace upstream, tier by tier, and converge on the same short list of companies. This teardown covers the three largest GPU makers — NVIDIA, AMD and Intel — though many more companies build accelerators. Tap any part in the teardown to trace its chain, or open the supply map to see the whole network at once.

A stylised teardown — every one of the thirty components, laid out the way they physically stack, from the cooler down to the silicon. Tap any part to read what it is and follow the flow of who makes it.
