− | + | Typically, but not always, accelerator cards make use of custom [[ASIC]] chips (known as ''[[accelerators]]'') in order to execute such workloads far more efficiently than what a normal [[general-purpose microprocessor]] would be capable of. Various [[FPGA]]-based accelerator cards also exist allowing the user to implement his own [[hardware acceleration]] functions. | |
