SGI Octane III personal supercomputer
Posted on Sep 22, 09 01:37 AM PDT
SGI has rolled out its personal supercomputer known as the Octane III, where it is able to hold up to a whopping 80 high-performance cores as well as nearly 1TB of memory. The Octane III will supposedly enable a "new era of innovation in strategic science, research, development and visualization", right in the comfort of the living room, we suppose. It won't come cheap though with prices starting from $8,000 upwards, where you can choose from the following configurations :-
- Ten dual-socket, Quad-Core Xeon 5500
- One dual-socket, Quad-Core Xeon 5500 workstation with advanced NVIDIA graphics and/or GP-GPU card support
- Nineteen single-socket, Quad-Core Xeon 3400
- Nineteen single-socket, Dual-Core Atom
