How to build your own 1:10 scale Cray-1 supercomputer

2014-10-13 19:53:20| Extremetech

The Cray-1, released in 1976, was one of the most successful supercomputers of all time. The Freon-cooled computer was clocked at a heady 80MHz and capable of up to 250 megaflops -- much more than any other computer on the market at the time -- and best of all it looked like something out of Star Trek. Now, an enterprising hardware hacker has made his own Cray-1 supercomputer -- or at least, a 1:10 scale model of it -- using some wood, paint, and a Xilinx FPGA development board.
