Interesting that the move is from CPU to GPU from Nvidia

 

The upgrade is expected to involve the addition of almost 19,000 Tesla K20s. Each is set to have a list price of between $1,500 and $2,000 (£930-£1,245), although the laboratory will get a discount for buying in bulk.

 

Heres me thinking my upgrade was expensive.

A machine like Titan has a budget of around 10 megawatts, and that costs roughly $10m per year just for the electricity”

 

Say what?..

And FSX would still be using the CPU recources.

And FSX would still be using the CPU recources.

...and that consists of a single speedy Intel Celeron running at an amazing 2.4 GHz. Of course after the customary FSX tweaks I think we could run FSX at 10 FPS with no autogen or traffic... :LMAO:

I don't think Titan uses Windows 7... :LMAO:
