Summary


Our Customers Say It Best:

"The Arctic Region Supercomputing Center needed a flexible, cost-effective, high-performance supercomputing environment in order to facilitate a wide range of scientific research, such as ocean and climate modeling, tsunami analysis, regional weather forecasting and applications requiring basic computational fluid dynamics. Sun's new AMD Opteron-powered products, with huge memory, large disk bandwidth and a fast cluster interconnect, comprise an overall cost savings and energy-efficient architecture, making them the ideal systems to drive our compute-intensive work.”

Frank Williams, DirectorThe Arctic Region Supercomputing Center

Remember the 3 “P”s:Performance, Power, Price

Price: Competition's pricing can be as much as twice the price of Sun’s entry-level x64 servers with large memory requirements

Power: Intel Xeon-based (Paxville/Woodcrest) systems consume more power than Sun systems – do not be misled by looking at just the CPU power consumption

Performance: Sun’s x64 systems haverecord-breaking performance!

AMD Dual Core Opteron 2x1MB L2 vs. Intel Xeon DP 2x2MB L2 (Paxville)

It takes 36% less power to drive one AMD Dual-Core processor based system than one Intel Xeon DP (Paxville) Dual-Core processor based system. In other words, it will require 58% more power to drive Intel Xeon DP (Paxville) Dual-Core processor based system than one AMD Dual-Core processor based system.
