Smart Procurements
|
CPU procurements need to optimise both capital costs (HEPScore/UnitCost) and operational efficiency (HEPScore/Watt). Efficiency is a relatively stable characteristic but is a function of the operating frequency. Costs fluctuate significantly with time and place. This utility helps inform procurement decisions by presenting the cost and efficiency of different architectures and operating points using user-supplied costs and existing benchmarking results. To use this web utility, follow the steps outlined below. Questions, feedback, and suggestions are more than welcome. |
 |
| Step 1 | Input your own current CPU price quotes, as relative unit costs* | CPUs |
| Step 2 | Review our CPU bechmarks | Benchmarks |
| Step 3 | Plot performance vs. costs | Plots |
*You can save, retrieve and modify your quotes as many times as needed.
