I am a hardware designers and really appreciate that the DeepSeek v3 paper included suggestions on hardware design!

I have a few questions:

  1. Could you please share the methodology of the experiment where you measured Hopper Tensor Core FP8 GEMM accuracy? Paper states that only the highest 14bits are calculated in tensor core when doing FP8 GEMM.
  2. Do you have any suggestions on inference focused hardware? For example the FP8 accumulation precision needed and generally any other suggestions?

Thank you!
