With CUDA technology by NVidia, we offer solutions that employ GPGPU (General‐purpose computing on graphic processing unit) processing. The great advantage of these boards lies in their high computational power.
For a performance comparison between GPU and CPU, see below.
Competitive advantages (Clusters vs GPGPU):
The processing capabilities of GPUs are much higher than the capabilities of today’s processors. This way you can replace computer clusters with GPU equipped desktops, reducing purchase, installation and maintenance costs of your equipment. Some of the advantages of GPGPU:
Less power consumption; |
Less space; |
No need of a cooling infrastructure; |
Pilot projects can be developed without huge hardware investments, since the boards are present in most computers currently used. |
