Definition: NVIDIA Tesla


A line of GPUs from NVIDIA designed for general-purpose computing. Introduced in 2007 and discontinued in 2020, Tesla cards offered significantly more performance than general-purpose CPUs and regular NVIDIA GeForce GPUs used for graphics rendering. The Tesla name was dropped to avoid confusion with the electric car company, and subsequent chips were branded with letters and digits (see A100 and H100).
