I'm working on finding some new compute nodes. What I'm looking for is a 64 core box, with room enough for a lot of RAM. I can get it from Dell, or HP (bleah! a 4U box), but I need to have three quotes, y'know. We've gotten a lot from Penguin in the past, but they're all Supermicro, and we've had a *lot* of problems with the 64 core boxes, so I'm looking for another vendor.
Suggestions? Recommendations? People to run the other way from?(Sun/Oracle is down there *under* "none of the above").
We switched from HP to Fujitsu a couple of years ago, and couldn't be happier. Look into their RX line, I think the RX500 and RX900 (iirc) do 4 and 8 socket.
I'd also recommend Fujitsu. If you're desperate there is the SGI H2106-G7 in 2U size.
I'll check that out. We *do* have an SGI... a UV 2000.
