Based on the new NVIDIA CUDA™ GPU architecture codenamed “Fermi”, the Tesla S2050 1U Computing Systems are designed from the ground up for high performance computing. It delivers “must have” features for the technical and enterprise computing space including ECC memory for uncompromised accuracy and scalability, and 7X the double precision performance compared Tesla 10-series GPU computing products. Compared to typical quad-core CPUs, Tesla 20-series computing systems deliver equivalent performance at 1/10th the cost and1/20th the power consumption.
Designed with four (4) Fermi-based Tesla computing processors in a standard 1U chassis, the Tesla S2050 computing system scales to solve the world’s most important computing challenges – more quickly and accurately.
GPU powered by the massively parallel CUDA architecture
Delivers cluster performance at 1/20th the power and 1/10th the cost of CPU-only systems based on the latest quad core CPUs.
IEEE 754 single and double Precision floating point units
Delivers up to 2.5 Teraflops of double precision performance in 1U form factor for faster and more accurate results.
ECC Support
Meets a critical requirement for datacenters and supercomputing centers deploying GPUs on a large scale with uncompromised computing accuracy and reliability. Offers protection of data in memory to enhance data integrity and reliability for applications. Register files, L1/L2 caches, shared memory, and DRAM all are ECC protected.
System Monitoring Features
Simplifies management and remote monitoring post-installation via NVSMI. Status lights on the front and rear of the unit ensures IT staff can see the status whether they are on the either side of the rack.
Up to 6GB of GDDR5 memory per GPU
Maximizes performance and reduces data transfers by keeping larger data sets in local memory that is attached directly to the GPU. Tesla S2050 includes 3GB/GPU.
NVIDIA Parallel DataCache™
Accelerates algorithms such as physics solvers, ray-tracing, and sparse matrix multiplication where data addresses are not known beforehand.
NVIDIA GigaThread™ Engine
Maximizes the throughput by faster context switching, concurrent kernel execution, and improved thread block scheduling.
Asynchronous Transfer
Turbocharges system performance by executing data transfers, even when the computing cores are busy.
System Monitoring Features
Simplifies management and monitoring post-installation. Remote capabilities as well as status lights on the front and rear of the unit ensures IT staff can see the status whether they are on the either side of the rack.
High Speed , PCI-Express Gen 2.0 Data Transfer
Maximizes bandwidth between the host system and the Tesla processors. Enables Tesla systems to work with virtually any PCIe-compliant host system with an open PCI-E slot (x8 or x16).
