This article explores whether FlashAttention-3/4 optimizations benefit RTX GPUs, concluding that FA-2 is the ceiling due to hardware limitations on consumer cards.
Claude Fable 5 achieves top results on KernelBench-Hard by hand-writing PTX code for B200 fp8 GEMM, outperforming other models and reaching 44-59% of peak performance on compute-bound shapes.
Discussion about rewriting parallelism to improve kernel performance using CuTe DSL and tile programming models for the FA4 (FlashAttention 4) kernel.
This paper argues that using FP8 tensor cores with Ozaki Scheme II can replace native FP64 hardware for high-performance scientific computing on AI-optimized GPUs like NVIDIA's B300, achieving full double-precision accuracy at much higher throughput. The authors present a Tensor-Memory Equilibrium model and show that emulated FP64 performance can exceed native FP64 by orders of magnitude across all workloads.
