Worlds Fastest supercomputer
Well, until October 2010, the kings of supercomputers used to be the Cray Jaguar in Tennessee with 1.759 Peta Flops. The new fastest supercomputer resides in Tianjin, China and peaks at 2.507 Peta Flops and is called Tianhe-1A.

I bet it can do some nice simulations Smile

"After an upgrade, it is now equipped with 14,336 Xeon X5670 processors and 7,168 Nvidia Tesla M2050 general purpose GPUs."

Holy mother! Intresting to know, how many seconds will it take for it to render an image. With some awesome and bulky render, that is.
Just your average local old skool guy Smile
