Appro wins Huge Deal with Three National Laboratories for 438 TeraFlop High Performance Computing Clusters based on Quad-Core AMD Opteron™ Processors 8/2/07
Tri-Laboratory Linux Capacity Cluster (TLCC07) program joins effort for next generation Linux clusters featuring easily replicated four-socket system scalability
Milpitas, CA -- 10/02/2007 – Appro (http://www.appro.com), a leading provider of high-performance enterprise computing systems, today announced the historic award of Appro Xtreme-X™ high performance computing clusters for the TLCC07 project to be delivered to three National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) weapons laboratories: Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Los Alamos National Laboratory and Sandia National Laboratories. This represents the first time, under a single contract, that the tri-Labs purchase the same high performance computing systems for deployment at all three sites.
The TLCC07 program represents a multi-million dollar contract between Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (www.llnl.gov) and Appro (www.appro.com) to provide scalable Linux high performance clusters with up to 438 teraFLOP/s in 21 Scalable Units (SU) with an option for an additional 10 SU, 200 teraFLOP/s of capacity computing power to be deployed in 8 separate Linux clusters at the tri-Lab sites.
This project consists of a total of 3,024 nodes, 12,096 processors/48,384 cores with up to 96.8TB of memory. These Appro high performance clusters will be based on Quad-Core AMD Opteron™ processors connected with a two stage InfiniBand 20 Gb/s 4X Double Data Rate (DDR) fabric featuring Voltaire Grid Director™ 288 port core switches. These clusters feature the latest Mellanox Technologies ConnectX IB 20Gb/s dual-port InfiniBand adapters and ConnectX EN dual port 10 Gigabit Ethernet NICs for storage cluster connectivity. These high performance clusters will be deployed to the tri-Labs community starting in late 2007 through early 2008.
Barcelona speeds up to 2.6GHz
Opterons phixed, Phenoms phloating

WORD HAD DRIFTED in from the far east that AMD will be launching Barcelona based Opterons at 2.6GHz.
As Fudo pointed out yesterday, the Phenom SKU will be a bit higher, 2.8 or more, with 3.0 coming in January if they don't squeak it in this year.
It will be interesting to see how the B2s perform with all the bug fixed in place, that will be the key. µ
Video, sama vest kipti od detalja, a i pouzdanost je na nivou Kurirovih senzacija. Al nek je dobra, sve ce mo joj oprostiti.
drfedja je napisao(la):Uz Intelov poslovicno nizi yield, sto narocito vazi za 45nm
A imas li ti cime da potkrepis tvrdnju da AMD ima nizak yield i 65nm ?
Imas li cime da potkrepis to da Intel mozda ima visi yield u 45nm nego AMD u 65nm.
Ako posmatras kao da imaju 100% yield, onda si potpuno u pravu, ali sta ako je ta cifra malo dalje od tih 100% ?
Rezultati slični ko za K8 Venice/Palermo na tim taktovima???
Skaliranje je koliko mogu na brzaka da izračunam 1:1 za takt/SPi rez
Mislim da gresis kod A64 RevE,razlika je oko 400Mhz (tj. toliko treba vise Mhz RevE sa normalnim ramom da stigne K10-uzmi u obzir da je ram kod K10 registered i sa cas5).
U pravu si, sad sam pogledao neke rezultate svoje stare mašine i grubo je tih 400MHz tako kako kažeš.
Skaliranje je koliko mogu na brzaka da izračunam 1:1 za takt/SPi rez
Da ne bude zabune :
Mislio sam na to kako je SPi rez u procentima skoro tačno onoliko bolji koliko je povećanje clocka u %.
(ograničavam se na Kyosen-ov test)
Kyosen na XS je uspeo da OCuje Barcelonu 2350 na 2.4Ghz sa stock Vcore-om,na Asus ploci sa reg. ram memorijom.Poceo je i da postuje rezultate,vrlo zanimljivo skaliranje u SPi.More to come :
