News AMD supercomputers take gold and silver in latest Top500 as Chinese HPC remains shrouded in secrecy

[Admin]

The Top500 project's 65th list of performance results reveals U.S. leadership in supercomputing. The AMD-based El Capitan, Frontier, and Intel-powered Aurora take the top three spots. AI-focused systems like Microsoft's Eagle and Germany’s GH200-powered Jupiter Booster make early appearances. China submitted no new entries for this Top500 edition.

The fact that Huawei has no qualms about bragging about CloudMatrix all but proves that China doesn't have a supercomputer to speak of. If they had one, they'd be bragging about it, too. There are, however, those haters who want to pretend as though China is hiding their supercomputers from the USA authorities; the general idea being that by hiding their supercomputers, there won't be investigations into how China acquired the processors to build their supercomputer. Goofy nonsense, I say. It really comes down to ability; and as always, it's the United States that has the ability, not China (although haters will keep hating. I recommend coping instead of hating)...

Too avoid getting sanction for its supplied chain, That's why.

Artificially stiffing competition and then claiming the competition has no "resources" is not the kind of flex you want to pull.

Do new runs have to be submitted each year or is the list a historical "cumulative" of best performance ever?

But have you all noticed that the new AMD Mi300A hardware in ElCapitan is not a single bit faster than the older one Mi250x which works in several years older Frontier? ElCapitan got the first place (1.74 vs 1.35 ExaFLOPS) only because of more cores (11 vs 8.6 million )

Huawei is already sanctioned to the moon and back, so it has no qualms about bragging, because it's already sanctioned.

The academic institutes and private entities behind China's exascale supercomputers want to protect it's suppliers from getting sanctioned.

Its widely believed that China has exascale capabilities that is not ranked on the supercomputer list.
