Tintin, available since Febr 15, 2012, consists of 160 dual Bulldozer compute servers where each compute server consists of two 8-core Opteron 6220 processors running at 3 GHz. We provide 144 nodes with 64 GB memory and 16 nodes with 128 GB. All nodes are interconnected with a 2:1 oversubscribed QDR Infiniband fabric. There is also 4 nodes with Tesla GPU graphics card. In total Tintin provides 2624 cpu cores. User guide |

Kalkyl, available since the first of March 2010, consists of 348 HP SL170h G6 compute servers where each compute server consists of two Quad-core Intel® Xeon 5520 (Nehalem 2.26 Ghz, 8MB cache) processors and 316 nodes have 24 GB memory and 250 GB local disk; 16 nodes have 48GB memory and 250 GB local disk; and 16 nodes have 72GB memory and 2TB local disk. All nodes are interconnected with a 4:1 oversubscribed DDR Infiniband fabric. User guide |

Grad, installed in 2008, provides 512 CPU cores in the form of 64 dual CPU (Intel 2.66GHz quad core, E5430) compute nodes with 16 GB RAM per node. By using "twin nodes" with dual nodes in each 1u rack mounted unit the system has been made very dense and easily fits into a single rack. Grad serves as a compute cluster in the national SweGrid computational grid, providing computing power to national and international large scale computing projects. Grad also include storage elements for SweGrid providing 140 TB of dCache disk pools. User guide |

| Halvan Halvan, installed in 2011, consists of a single SMP node with 2048 GB of RAM and 64 cores. The node consists of one HP ProLiant DL980 G7 compute server, containing eight Intel® Xeon X6550 2.00GHz (8 core) processors. The local /scratch file system is implemented on a RAID of four Solid State Disks, making it approximately eight times faster than a normal harddisk based file system. User Guide
