Greetings!

Ktransformer is really a good solution for us to use cheap CPUs instead of GPU(nowadays NVIDIA GPU is really expensive) running llm. Bravo!

I saw social media says that Intel will publish its new B series GPUs, B50 and B60(with 24GB RAM). And Intel has a multi-card feature with B60 called BattleMatrix. See reference here: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/articles/technical/introduction-project-battlematrix.html.

Will ktransformer plan to support B50/B60 cards? Will it support the battlematrix?

KT has added support for Intel Arc-A series and B-series graphics cards(including B50/B60) via PR #1295 .
And multi-card support(balanced_serve multi-concurrency mode) is in progress - stay tuned for updates, please
