this is interesting. most of the coverage seems to interpret this as using opterons (which makes some sense, given the direction bulldozer is going, towards lots of space/power-effective cores.) but here's another prospect: a box with lots of APU chips that max out GPU density. lotsa gflops/watt, very compact... seamicro says their interconnect is special, low-lat, high-bw, but it sounds like an onboard 10Gb chip to me. calxeda's onboard distributed switch might be more interesting. regards, mark hahn. _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, [email protected] sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
