What does a quantum computer look like beyond the chip? Linus Tech Tips visits D-Wave in this 2017 hardware tour, bringing the cooling equipment and physical scale into view. D-Wave uses quantum annealing, a different approach from the general-purpose gate-based machines in many quantum headlines. Watch for the engineering context, not a current performance ranking. The original upload includes sponsor promotions; the tour does not establish that today’s machines outperform conventional computers at every task.
