Advanced Clustering Technologies is excited to offer a full-range of systems based on Intel's© new Xeon© E5 series processor.

The new Xeon© E5 systems provide a number of enhancements perfect for HPC environments:

• 50% more cores: New models available with 8 cores (16 threads) per CPU for a total of 16 cores (32 threads) in a dual processor system.
• 100% more FLOPs: With the new AVX instructions the Xeon© E5 can execute 8 floating point operations per cycle versus 4 on previous generation Xeon© 5600 CPUs. This performance gain combined with the increased core count yields even better performance.
• 80% more memory bandwidth: With increase from 1333MHz to 1600MHz memory, and the addition of an extra memory channel memory bandwidth increases to over 75GB/s.
• 330% more PCI-e bandwidth: New Xeon© E5 systems have an upgraded PCI-e bus that has been integrated in the CPU, increased to version 3.0 (providing 8GT/s per lane), and offers a maximum of 80 lanes, perfect for FDR (56Gb/s) InfiniBand or multiple GPUs.
