Supermicro SuperBlade Servers @ Computex 2011

Supermicro introduces Enterprise NVIDIA GPU Superblade  Server which combines 20 Tesla GPU’s in a 7U enclosure. This is the highest density Blaze Server based on GPU technology. The 2U GPU server combines 6 TESLA GPU’s in a 2U box for customers with Graphic intensive requirements from their servers. The latest product is the MicroCloud with cloud optimised architecture where each server node is individually managed, deployed as needed. The modules are all based on Intel Sandybridge processor technology, bringing convenience and affordability to the server market. The 5U server is an 8-way MP server. This means that 8x Nehalem based CPU’s inside one box. Each server can support up to 2T of memory. The next server is the Twin server, with either two or four systems into either 1U or 2U box. Lastly the Blade Servers have the same functionality enabling CPU intensive tasks, alternatively using the GPU array as described before for Graphical intensive tasks.

Gigabyte Intel Z68 and AMD 900 motherboards @ Computex 2011

The Intel Z68 format allows transcoding from your tablet or smart phone, to assist with CPU intensive tasks that can be shared. In addition, the board supports Lucid virtue technology allowing both discrete and integrated graphics to enhance one another, and to save power, you may turn off the discrete card as needed. In addition, Gigabyte have added in a micro-SSD slot for MSATA – which supports Intels smart response technology where a small capacity SSD drive can act essentially as a L4 cache, giving a system wide performance boost. The AMD 900 platform enables on-CPU enabled graphics for Direct X 11 support and ensures support for Crossfire or SLI as well as Bulldozer 8 core CPUs when they launch.
