Nvidia unveils Tesla

Posted on 28 November 2008


I never thought I will see something like this too soon. The new Tesla from Nividia is the world first Teraflop many-core processor. With no more than 240 cores per processor Tesla is the most accurate and the quickest pc from the market. The supercomputer, because the name of computer is no match for him is based on the revolutionary CUDA architecture and can be bought at a price of almost 10 000 $. But this is not something for the ordinary users. Don’t even think to buy it, even if you are some gadget freak. Probably you won’t use all its power in some decades from now on.

Still it can be used for solving complex problems which with a normal pc will take much more. So Scientists and researchers benefit from the power of the massively parallel, computing architecture in Tesla solutions. The platform also contains the first C Compiler, and a debugger, for a GPU. This souldn’t amaze us any more. Because after so many years when the ram and processor occupied the most important role in a computer, now the graphic card is the most expensive hardware component for a PC gamer. At this price we can expect just innovative things from it.
