We have completed the upgrade to the GPU portion of the hex cluster:<\/p>\n

– Installed new GPU004 server with two nVidia K40 cards.
\n– Two additional nVidia K40 cards added to GPU003.<\/p>\n

This brings the number of GPU cards in our cluster to 14:
\n– 8 x M2090
\n– 6 x K40<\/p>\n

Our thanks to UCT Computer Science, UCT Chemical Engineering and DELL South Africa<\/a> for making this possible.<\/p>\n

The new\u00a0GPU cards were \u00a0fully in use 30 minutes after the server came online:<\/p>\n
