NVIDIA today unveiled its newest Tesla processor -- the Tesla 20-series. The latest entrant to NVIDIA Tesla series is targeted towards the high performance computing (HPC) market and is based on NVIDIA's new generation CUDA processor architecture, codenamed “Fermi”. Designed from the ground-up for parallel computing, the NVIDIA Tesla 20-series GPUs slash the cost of computing by delivering the same performance of a traditional CPU-based cluster at one-tenth the cost and one-twentieth the power.

The family of Tesla 20-series GPUs includes:

* Tesla C2050 & C2070 GPU Computing Processors
o Single GPU PCI-Express Gen-2 cards for workstation configurations
o Up to 3GB and 6GB (respectively) on-board GDDR5 memory
o Double precision performance in the range of 520GFlops - 630 GFlops
* Tesla S2050 & S2070 GPU Computing Systems
o Four Tesla GPUs in a 1U system product for cluster and datacenter deployments
o Up to 12 GB and 24 GB (respectively) total system memory on board GDDR5 memory
o Double precision performance in the range of 2.1 TFlops - 2.5 TFlops

The Tesla C2050 and C2070 products will retail for $2,499 and $3,999 and the Tesla S2050 and S2070 will retail for $12,995 and $18,995. Products will be available in Q2 2010.
