GPU Computing For Servers
Throughout the past year there has been an increased focus from GPU providers such as nVIDIA on GPGPU (General Purpose GPU) compute applications and the emergence of the personal supercomputer. Leveraging the power of multiple GPUs to perform computational tasks provides massive processing benefits in a single workstation system. Read on to discover how this technology leap came about.

Supermicro SuperChassis 847A-R1400LPB - Available now
Supermicro's new SC847A series of storage chassis support 36 hot-swap SAS/SATA drives in 4U. These reliable and maintenance-free storage workhorses also support up to seven low-profile add-on cards (LP models) or four full-height, full-length plus three low-profile add-on cards (UIO models). When combined with Supermicro's wide selection of networking and storage controller cards, these systems are ideal for SAN or NAS applications as well as Cloud storage, SaaS, disaster recovery, and iSCSI solutions.
