ORNL to Use NVIDIA Fermi to Build Next Gen Super Computer
NVIDIA announced its new Fermi architecture at its GPU Technology Conference recently. The new architecture was designed from the ground up to enable a new level of supercomputing using GPUs rather than CPUs. At the conference, Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) associate lab director for Computing and Computational Sciences, Jeff Nichols, announced that ORNL would be building a next generation supercomputer using the Fermi architecture.
The new supercomputer is expected to be ten times faster than today's fastest supercomputer. Nichols said that Fermi would enable substantial scientific breakthroughs that would have been impossible without the technology.
Looks like NV has customers already for Fermi.
