The world of high performance computing is expanding every day, particularly in the fields of geosciences, molecular biology and medical diagnostics, where scientists are increasingly turning to supercomputers to crunch massive amounts of data via complex simulations and applications. Graphics processing unit solution provider Nvidia has developed a new line of GPU-focused solutions that transfer many of the calculations required by scientific and graphics-heavy applications to the GPU rather than the central processing unit found in more traditional PCs.
