-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi folks,
Apparently Iran claims to have 2 new supers, the larger at 89TF. http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9211058/Iran_claims_two_new_supercomputers Looking at the photos they look like SuperMicro boxes, some 2I with lots of disks and some that look remarkably like GPU boxes - compare this picture: http://www.mehrnews.com/mehr_media/image/2011/02/623838_orig.jpg and this SuperMicro GPU 1U box: http://www.supermicro.com/products/system/1U/6016/SYS-6016GT-TF.cfm?GPU=TM1 They look the same to me though of course there's no way to tell if GPUs are in them, but the spacing between them does seem to imply that they kick out a fair amount of heat..
