Clearspeed CSX600

ADVANCE, ACCELERATE, OPTIMIZE

Leading scientists, engineers, analysts and researchers in a wide range of disciplines are looking to their IT departments to provide increased computing power to process large, complex mathematical models and simulations. At the forefront of these disciplines the pressure to advance is constant, and so is the pressure on the IT infrastructure. Adding more general purpose processors is not always possible due to power, cooling and physical space constraints. Consequently increasing performance must be balanced with infrastructure costs.

ClearSpeed's CSX600 Advance™Accelerator Board provides application acceleration without impacting power, cooling or space requirements. In a PCI-X form factor one or more boards can be easily added to a server or even a workstation. And because it operates at the standard math library level, application users see only the performance gain with none of the hassle of changing their code.

OPTIMIZE
Requiring no more space than a free PCI-X slot for each ClearSpeed Advance board, adding acceleration to your workstations or servers is easy. Drawing on only 25 watts it won't increase your power or cooling requirements.

ACCELERATE
Adding a single Advance board to your workstation gives you up to an additional 50 GFLOPS sustained performance - that's like having five workstations under your desk. There's no need to port code for many applications; it accelerates standard math libraries e.g. Level 3 BLAS, FFT etc. used by many applications such as Mathematica and MATLAB.

ADVANCE
Using multiple boards to accelerate your cluster enables even bigger breakthroughs in compute density. Combined with IEEE 754 compliant 64bit floating point, teams are freed to advance their science, tackling ever bigger problems with greater accuracy.
