The best a supercomputer can be minimized to is the SGI’s Octane III workstation, which is handsomely loaded with what those big rigs contain. Featuring some insanely powerful characteristics, the rig is capable of delivering a speed-laden performance of the best quality.
This 1 x 2 feet workstation is stuffed in with a TB of storage space and configured well to house ten 2.5-inch SATA II hard drives, the system does impressively high 80 CPU chores on Intel Xeon 5500 series, Dual-core Atom processors, and Xeon 3400 processors. Priced at competitively modest $7999, this machine does deserve a supercomputer status in regular desktops.
