AMD Stream Processor First to Break 1 Teraflop BarrierAMD FireStream 9250 breaks the one teraflop barrier for single precision performance at the
International Supercomputing Conference in Dresden, Germany.
AMD FireStream occupies a single PCI slot with power consumption of less than 150 watts, delivering an unprecedented rate of performance per watt efficiency of up to
eight gigaflops per watt.
Just last week
IBM announced the Roadrunner Project the worlds fastest computer with
1,000 trillion operations per second. Roadrunner is powered by 6,562 dual-core AMD Opteron processors networked with 12,240 Cell chips.
Can you even begin to imagine the speed capabilities
of leveraging AMD’s latest FireStream offering with third generation Quad-Core AMD Opteron Processors..?
