POWER 7 - Redefining the benchmarks against which performance is measured

New POWER7™ processor-based systems represent a true leap forward to more intelligent systems that minimize complexity, automate processes, and reduce energy consumption, downtime and other operational costs. On a smarter planet these are the only benchmarks that matter.

Featuring an innovative multi-core, 45 nanometer design, running at speeds of over 4.1 GHz, with up to 8-cores per socket, and four threads per core, POWER7 systems combined with IBM systems software, middleware and storage deliver unprecedented performance for both transactional and throughput computing.

IBM Power® 780: A new category of scalable high-end servers, featuring an advanced modular design with up to 64 POWER7 cores and the new TurboCore™ workload optimizing mode that maximizes per core performance.

IBM Power 770: Extending the industry’s most successful modular enterprise server with up to 64 POWER7™ cores, higher performance per core, using up to 70 percent less energy for the same number of cores as the IBM Power 570 and optimized for a wide variety of commercial workloads.

IBM Power 755: A high performance computing cluster node with 32 POWER7 cores, ENERGY STAR-qualified for exceptional energy efficiency, and optimized for the most challenging analytic workloads.

IBM Power 750 Express: An ENERGY STAR-qualified midrange business server utilizing POWER7 processors, offering more than five times the performance and six times the performance per watt of comparable 4-socket Sun SPARC64 VII and HP Itanium® servers and delivering more than twice the performance and three times the performance per watt of comparable Sun UltraSPARC T2+ servers*.
