I was hoping to find a database of chips and their specs, which might help answer this question. (The geographical question, or the related question of types of compute i.e. GPU/CPU/embedded/datacenter/etc.) I just saw this website, chipdb which has information about historical processors of interest to collectors. Unfortunately they have no information about modern chips, esp. GPUs—NVidia isn’t even a category! Maybe there is a more current online database that tracks these things.
I just had a very quick look at that site, and it seems to be a collection of various chip models with pictures of them? Is there actual information on quantities sold, etc? I couldn’t find it immediately.
Nope. It’s a site by and for collectors, and apparently what they care about is reference images of the face of old chips. You’d think that ChipDB would be a database of chips, but this one is sorely lacking. I added this comment in hopes that someone knows of a more useful (to us) database.
