Well, until October 2010, the kings of supercomputers used to be the Cray Jaguar in Tennessee with 1.759 Peta Flops. The new fastest supercomputer resides in Tianjin, China and peaks at 2.507 Peta Flops and is called Tianhe-1A.

I bet it can do some nice simulations :)

That's amazing, im going to steal it.

"After an upgrade, it is now equipped with 14,336 Xeon X5670 processors and 7,168 Nvidia Tesla M2050 general purpose GPUs."

Holy mother! Intresting to know, how many seconds will it take for it to render an image. With some awesome and bulky render, that is.

Amazing, I wish I could get my hands on something like that.
Technology just keeps on improving..

I wonder who this computer will be on using them...

gfpoow · 11-22-2010, 06:54 PM,

may be size of that supercomputer more bigger than my house
ckckkk.. China awesome

tigret · 11-22-2010, 10:45 PM,

I day I'll buy this super computer...:P

Hmm , with 2000 peta flops what would I simulate in 3d?
Everything.
