SGI Concept Supercomputer Is 10,000-core 'Molecule' - Gizmo Watch


SGI Concept Supercomputer Is 10,000-core 'Molecule' - Gizmo Watch: "We have high performance driven to an entirely new high. Concepts have been out there to lure the eye, but this is perhaps the one of its kind that challenges the power and durance. It’s a concept supercomputer designed on the Intel’s atom processor, called the new SGI Molecule. It touts of 10,000 cores, which is about 40 times more than a 1U x86 cluster system, packed into a single computer. The Silicon Graphics Molecule concept supercomputer designed around an Intel Atom N330 chip and Kelvin cooling technology, houses memory bandwidth of more than 750 high-end PCs, with 15TB/sec of memory bandwidth per rack, in a size of a normal PC."
