800 TFLOP real-time ray tracing GPU emerges

This 800 teraflop real-time ray tracing system, jointly developed by Toyota and Unisys, consists of 73-core chips and can fit into a desktop computer chassis. This monster GPU system is aimed at the auto industry for efficient prototype body designs and paint combinations. For your information, the NVIDIA Tesla desktop GPU system C1060 featuring 240 streaming processor cores delivers about 1 TFlops of parallel computing in single precision floating point calculations. The high-end Tesla S1070 system with 4 GPUs (and each GPU is equipped with 240 streaming cores) reaches 4TFlops and 0.3TFlops in single precision and double precision calculations, respectively.
