Dell has released the PowerEdge C4130, a GPU-dense and flexible HPC-focused rack server purpose built to accelerate the most demanding HPC workloads, and the only Intel Xeon E5-2600v3 1U server to offer up to four GPUs/accelerators. According to Dell, it has up to 33% better GPU/accelerator density than its closest competitors and 400% more PCIe GPU/accelerators per processor per rack U than a comparable HP system.

The rack server can achieve over 7.2 teraflops on a single 1U server and has a performance/watt ratio of up to 4.17 gigaflops per watt, enabling customers to further optimise application performance and productivity while unshackling the constraints of traditional data centre space and energy use.

Incorporating innovative technology from NVIDIA and Intel, the rack server is available in five configurations that address the flexibility necessary for varying HPC workload characteristics. This supercomputing agility allows for scientific and medical research labs, financial firms, industrial companies and organisations with analytical or data-intensive computing needs to deliver faster results and quickly adapt to changing business needs.

The PowerEdge C4130 adds up to two Intel Xeon E5-2600v3 processors, 16 DIMMs of DDR4 memory and up to two 1.8-inch SATA SSD boot drives in just 1U of rack space. With up to four 300 W Intel Xeon Phi coprocessors or NVIDIA Tesla GPU accelerators, including the new NVIDIA Tesla K80 dual-GPU accelerator , the rack server enables seamless analysis and execution of data on even the most complex and intensive computing workloads.
