Cray to use AMD processors for supercomputers
Cray announced that it will continue to use AMD’s Opteron processors for supercomputers through the end of this decade.
Additionally, AMD will work with the company on a proposal for phase 3 of the federal government’s DARPA HPCS (High Productivity Computing Systems) program. The program plans to provide economically viable, next-generation high productivity computing systems for the national security, scientific and industrial user communities that are able to run applications at sustained speeds of one petaflop or more by the end of the decade, the firms said.
Today, Cray offers Opteron processors in its supercomputer models XT3 and XD1.
