1 Fermi = 250 NvidiaWatts ~= 320 real Watts
1 Xeon = 130 Watts

2 Fermi + 2 Xeon + 100 misc. Watts = 1000 Watts/blade peak.

16 blades/7U * 4/rack = 64 blades/rack

Or 64,000 Watts per rack. You cannot cool this and run Linpack at the same time. Additionally, the GPU systems are ~50% as efficient as multi-core CPUs on Linpack.

So you need about 20 racks and an imaginary cooling system to reach 1 PFLOP.

Still interesting...

I meant "crazy" as a compliment. When it comes to Russian innovation, we are well aware of what is happening in Zelenograd, for instance. =)

I can attest to the fact that we Russians are indeed crazy and that this is just one great example of what Russia is capable of accomplishing in IT beyond fantastic malware.
