NVIDIA powers over 400 of the world’s 500 fastest supercomputers

NVIDIA technologies power more than 400 of the world’s 500 fastest supercomputers — 81% of the TOP500 — according to the latest rankings at the ISC High Performance conference in Hamburg, Germany. That’s a gain of 17 systems from the previous list, with the momentum in new deployments: nearly nine of every 10 systems new to the ranking are built on NVIDIA technologies. That percentage reflects a deliberate preference for machines built for AI, simulation and science together.
