SGI has launched the new personal supercomputer which combines power and performance capabilities in a desk type computer with the usability of a workstation.
It is the machine of our dreams, because it measures one by two feet and whisper quiet operations, low maintenance requirements and can stand what a whole company claims for!
The new Octane III works at a speed of 80 high-performance cores and has got nearly 1 TB of memory. It is configurable, and offers a selection of performance, storage, graphics, GP-GPU and a range of networking options.
Octane III is now selling with different configurations such as: ten dual-socket, quad-core Intel Xeon processor 5500 series-based nodes; one dual-socket, quad-core Intel Xeon processor 5500 series-based workstation with advanced NVIDIA graphics and/or GP-GPU card support; nineteen single-socket, quad-core Intel Xeon processor 3400 series-based nodes; and nineteen single-socket, dual-core Intel Atom processor-based nodes.
The Octane III ships as a pre-integrated platform with HPC application support for out-of-the-box experience and works with Microsoft HPC Server 2008, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server and Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating systems. Linux configurations include SGI ProPack and ISLE cluster management software.
Octane III is available with Intel Xeon processor 5500 series or Intel Atom configurations. Its price starts at $7995.
