Side-mounted radiators and fans can also be positioned in the case, useful for custom loop machines. The O11 Air case has a grilled front and top, supporting up to 360mm worth of fans in each location, though radiators are an alternative. Moving the PSU to the back of the case means that the bottom can be configured with intake fans, feeding the GPU directly, and the CPU can be cooled via liquid or bottom-front intake.
The case makes excellent use of space: Without getting too wide, the O11 manages to relocate the PSU into a separate compartment, which frees-up the entire interior for optimized airflow pathways to core components. This one easily goes to the Lian Li O11 Dynamic and O11 Air enclosures ( video coverage here), built as a collaborative project between Lian Li and overclock engineer Der8auer.
2018 BEST GAMING PC CASE SIMULATOR
Cadence Spectre FX FastSPICE Simulator Adopted by SK hynix to Accelerate DRAM Design.With petascale storage, compute and visualization, the new NCAR facility will represent one of more impressive HPC setups in the world when it comes online later this year. The next phase of the system, scheduled for Q1 2014, will incorporate 3TB drives and increase that capacity to 16.9 petabytes. Using 2TB disk drives, total usable storage capacity will be 10.9 petabytes. GLADE will be made up of 76 IBM DCS3700 storage servers and run GPFS. It will act as a centralized file resource for Yellowstone and the DAV clusters. The new NCAR center will also house a data storage system, known as GLADE. Interestingly, that system is scheduled to be installed in November 2012, a few months before the Knights Corner parts are expected to be in volume production. Again, it’s a 16-node cluster, with each node pairing two of the MIC coprocessors with two Sandy Bridge EP chips.
The third DAV system is an Intel Knights Corner-powered system. The visualization cluster, Caldera, will also have 16 nodes, but in this case, each node has a much smaller memory footprint (64 GB), less CPU performance (two Sandy Bridge EP processors) and more graphics horsepower (two NVIDIA GPUs).
2018 BEST GAMING PC CASE PLUS
Geyser, a 16-node IBM x3850 cluster, will provide large-scale analytics for the supercomputer. Each Geyser node will have a terabyte of memory and house four 10-core Westmere EX processors plus an NVIDIA GPU. $20 million has been provided by the state, while the University will pay $1 million each year over the next 20 years.Īs part of Yellowstone’s supporting cast are three data analysis and visualization (DAV) systems – Geyser, Caldera, and a Knights Corner cluster, which will be used to post-process the data produced by simulation runs. Like Yellowstone, all the clusters will be outfitted with FDR InfiniBand. The system is expected to cost between $25 and $30 million, which will be covered by the state and the University of Wyoming (UW). As such, it will deliver about 30 times the performance of Bluefire, the NCAR supercomputer that Yellowstone is in line to replace.
The system is being installed now and is expected to come online by summer’s end.ĭelivering an estimated 1.55 peak petaflops, Yellowstone is expected to earn a top ten spot on the upcoming TOP500 list. The nodes will be hooked together with Mellanox FDR (56 Gbps) InfiniBand. Each 16-core node will be equipped with 32 GB of DDR3-1600 memory. Based on Big Blue’s iDataPlex server platform, the system will consist of 4,518 dual-socket Sandy Bridge EP nodes, amounting to 72,288 cores. IBM won the bid to build the supercomputer, beating out three other competitors. The center is set to open on October 15 th. The 153,000 square foot building is costing roughly $70 million, funded by business groups, the state government and the NSF. The Republic covered the construction of NCAR-Wyoming Supercomputing Center, where Yellowstone will be housed. The idea is to give Earth scientists access to much greater computing and storage capabilities in order to create more accurate simulations of these atmospheric and geophysical models. The machines will be used to support research in weather, climate, air pollution, earthquakes, carbon sequestration and water issues. The facility will host Yellowstone, a petascale supercomputer, as well as new storage, visualization, and data analytics clusters. The National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) is building a new high performance computing center in Wyoming, just west of Cheyenne.
