Okay Asustek maybe good in all that’s delicate and ultraportable. Now, breaking that jinks and for good I suppose, Asustek shows something for real computing – a 1.1 teraflop supercomputer. Asus ESC 100 as they call this is a simple desktop-sized device powered by a 3.33GHz Intel LGA1366 Xeon W3580 processor that is designed for use in servers.

Using three NVIDIA Tesla C1060 computing processors and a single Quadro FX5800, the machine manages 960 graphics cores, which is perhaps the most cost effective and energy-efficient option to high-performance workstations. The ESC 1000 has 24GB of DDR3 memory at 1333MHz along with a 500GB SATA II hard drive. There’s nothing on the price and availability other than the fact that ASUS states that a 5 year cost structure for ESC 1000 comes in at $14,519 USD.
