Super Micro Computer, one of the industry's leading suppliers of application optimized, high performance servers and workstations, announced today the launch of the new 7046GT Super TRF Workstations, which aims to track the performance of Intel's Nehalem-based Xeon 5500 series server processors. The new server operating system designed to track the performance of Intel's latest Xeon chips with NVIDIA's Tesla C1060 GPU's, which give users a choice of a high-end workstation that can make an impressive four TeraFLOPS results. In addition, the new work has been with 1400 watt power supplies that are designed to meet the Gold Level-dependent efficiency (93% + return).

"The expansion of our leadership in GPU computing system architectures of the new 7046GT-TRF features several x16 non-blocking Gen2 native PCI-Express connection Super Micro the first system to support four double-width GPUs," said Charles Liang, president and CEO of Super Micro. "Equipped with the patented Super Micro thermal design and industry leading power efficiency, which is highly parallel, multi-GPU system is optimized for a wide range of graphics and require intensive applications in medical imaging, oil and gas exploration, quantum chemistry financial simulation, genomics and astrophysics."

Super Micro Super Workstation is designed for up to four NVIDIA Tesla C1060 GPU card, together with two Intel Xeon 5500-series Quad / Dual Core processors. The rack-mountable systems can be equipped with up to 96GB of DDR3 ECC memory and also has a dual Intel 82574 Gigabit Ethernet solution and support for up to six SATA drives. The Super Micro SC747TQ-R1400 chassis with support for up to eleven full-length, the full-length expansion cards and eight replacement 3.5-inch SAS / SATA hard drives.

"Scientists and engineers rely on Tesla GPUs for unprecedented levels of performance for the dollar," said Andy Walsh, director of marketing, business NVIDIA Tesla. "Super Micro innovative Tesla-based 4U Personal supercomputer provides cluster level performance on the desktop, dramatically increase the pace of computational research."
