NextComputing Blade Server Supports NVIDIA Tesla GPUs

By DE Editors

NextComputing now supports the NVIDIA Tesla C-class GPU computing processors in its NextStream dense streaming blade server, including the recently announced Tesla C2075.

The two-rack-units-high NextStream is optimized for high-performance computing tasks that require a mix of traditional multi-core CPU processing with GPU co-processing in a dense form-factor. The server also includes integrated Ethernet switching and a dedicated management PC module for in-chassis direct management of blade nodes. The chassis can house up to three independent dual-processor blades, each with dual Intel Xeon 5500 series processors and 96GB memory, for a total of 36 processing cores and 288GB of memory per chassis. Each blade has its own PCI Express 2.0 x8 expansion slot and internal Gigabit networking between blades.
