NVidia Tesla:World’s first “personal” supercomputer
NVidia has come up with “Tesla personal supercomputer” that delivers cluster computing like performance and is upto 250 times faster than the present day personal computers or workstations.
Tesla is powered by 4 GPU’s, each having 240 processing cores (that makes 4*240=960 cores working in parallel in total) based on the NVidia’s CUDA architecture, delivering whopping performance of near 4 Teraflops!

The Tesla Personal Supercomputer is a desktop computer that is backed by Nvidia and built by Dell, Lenovo and other companies[1]. It is meant to be a demonstration of the capabilities of Nvidia's Tesla GPGPU brand; it utilizes NVIDIA's CUDAparallel computing architecture and powered by up to 960 parallel processing cores[2], which allows it to achieve a performance up to 250 times faster than standard PCs, according to Nvidia. As of January 2009, the Tesla computer platform delivers the best performance among all stand-alone systems being used in distributed computing projetcs like Seti@home or Spinhenge@home.
