NVIDIA's Jetson TK1 Mobile Embedded Supercomputer Now Shipping

[HardOCP News]

We’re now shipping the Jetson TK1 development kit, the first supercomputer for developing embedded applications and devices– the digital technologies built into the world all around us. Order the kit and you’ll get a Jetson TK1 development board, an AC adapter with power cord, a USB cable for flashing, and our quick start guide to help get you running. At Jetson’s core: Tegra K1. Announced earlier this year, Tegra K1 is built around 192 programmable cores that can deliver more than 300 Gigaflops of computing power. These cores are built around the same Kepler architecture used by some of the world’s most powerful supercomputers. As a result, all of Tegra K1’s power can be unlocked with CUDA, the same pervasive, easy-to-use parallel processing platform used on Kepler-powered workstations and supercomputers.

This is really cool, an affordable way to get into dedicated CUDA stuff could be a lot of fun.

On a smartass note: How long until people buy this for mining cryptocoins?
