Intel Xeon E5450

4-core Xeon at 3.0GHz, the minority host processor in the original Tianhe-1.

Why this part

The older of Tianhe-1's two Xeon models, a Core-microarchitecture part from two years before the Nehalem-based E5540 it shared a machine room with, which suggests these nodes were carried over from an earlier procurement rather than bought new for the 2009 build.

“Units recorded” sums only the edges where a public source states a quantity. It is a floor, not a total, and should never be read as installed base.
