Around 150 NVIDIA RTX A6000 GPUs Are Used to Control the Las Vegas Sphere’s Nearly 750,000 Square Feet Exterior

Around 150 NVIDIA RTX A6000 GPUs are being used to provide extravagant displays on the world's largest LED screen. The Las Vegas Sphere's interior and exterior surface is roughly 750,000 square feet. Its exterior surface is covered by 1.23 million programmable LED pucks that are controlled by around 150 NVIDIA RTX A6000 GPUs which also power interior displays as well.

2.1 Billion Pixels in Las Vegas Sphere are Powered by 150 NVIDIA RTX A6000 GPUs

The city of Las Vegas late last year added another attraction to its town: the Sphere. The Sphere is a 1.2 million pixel outdoor display venue famous for its massive size and inner 18,600-seat auditorium. The auditorium space is a feat of its own with features like a 16x16 resolution wraparound...

Yep, that was already linked in the post, as are all of the following, but the question still remains on how TechPowerUp came to their conclusion of 2.1B since none of these sources have that info. There were some folks in their forum who also questioned the calculations.




and their source (VideoCardz):




whose source was (NVIDIA), that I also used:




an then I also went a step further with this one (from Time):
