China has World's fastest supercomputer
According to the Annual meeting of National High Performance computing (HPC China 2010) in Beijing, Tianhe-1A is the world's fastest supercomputer with a performance record of 2.507 petaflops,, as measured by LINKPACK benchmark.
Tainhe-1A was designed by the the National University of Defense Technology(NUDT) in China.To achieve the new performance record , Tainhe-1A uses 7,168 Nividia Tesla M2050 GPU's and 14,336 Intel Xenon CPUs. It cost $88 million. Its 103 cabinet weight 155 tons and the entire system consume 4.04 megawatts of electricity.
Tianhe-1A ousted the previous record holder, Cray XT5 Jaguar which is used by the U.S. National Center for Computational Sciences at Oak Ridge National Laboratories. It is powered by 224,162 Opteron CPUs and achieves a performance record of 1.75 petaflops.
According to Nividia, Tianhe-1A will be operated as an open access system to use for large scale scientific computations.
