Folding @ Home may have pushed a big wave in the world of COVID-19 research efforts but it looks like the HPC COVID-19 Consortium just gained some big players. AMD and NVIDIA are the most notable here for our readers but I would be remiss to not mention the NWS Project as well for putting in their efforts. Michael Kratsios made the announcement earlier today and followed up noting that the HPC COVID-19 Consortium has already matched 15 research proposals with the required compute power. He also made note that they are now over 402 Petaflops stretched over 105,000 nodes, 3.5 million CPU cores, 41,000 GPUs and that number is only going up.

The @WhiteHouse supercomputing partnership with U.S. tech companies, universities, @ENERGY, & @NSF continues to grow.
