Relentless Demand For HPC Performance
The importance of performance and productivity in the technical workplace cannot be overstated. As datasets grow increasingly complex, the path to great discovery gets more and more computationally challenging. Today’s scientists, engineers, and other technical professionals need massive horsepower to crunch these complex datasets fast, efficiently, and accurately. Feeding this relentless demand for HPC performance are resource-prohibitive CPU-based clusters. What if supercomputing was easily accessible and affordable?
Supercomputer For Everyone
Introduction of Colfax CXT3000N PSC democratizes HPC by providing today’s professionals an affordable personal supercomputing resource on their desktop that is much faster and more energy-efficient than a shared cluster in the data center.
Supercomputing Performance Shrink Wrapped In-a-Box
The Colfax CXT3000N PSC leverages NVIDIA® Tesla™ C2050 / C1060 Computing Processors, offering massive parallel processing capabilities to speed calculations and solve problems impossible with current computing approaches. Powered by up to 1792 cores and nearly 4 Teraflops of peak performance, the CXT3000N delivers cluster level computing performance — up to 250 times faster than standard PCs and workstations — right at your desk.
NVIDIA CUDA™ Architecture Unlocks the Power Of GPU Parallel Computing
The CUDA parallel computing architecture enhances performance by offloading computationally-intensive activities from the CPU to the GPU — unlocking the many-core processing power of NVIDIA GPUs to solve the most complex computation-intensive challenges such as protein docking, molecular dynamics, financial analysis, fluid dynamics, structural analysis and many others.
