- ajross 8y agoThis is a press release detailing the what appears to be the system under test: https://www.cavium.com/news/gigabyte-announces-thunderxstation-industry-s-first-armv8-workstation-based-on-cavium-s-thunderx2-processor https://www.cavium.com/news/gigabyte-announces-thunderxstati... I can't find a mention of it on Gigabyte's site, but there's an email there you could try. Honestly: this is a brand new device that clearly isn't actually in the channel yet. They shipped out test systems for press hits like this, it's not really a "product" quite yet.
- rwmj 8y agoCavium are actually pretty good out of all the ARM server vendors of, you know, selling the hardware. (For some reason other vendors found that really hard.) The ThunderX2 has not been generally released yet, but I'm expecting it'll turn up on the same sites selling the old ThunderX, eg. https://www.avantek.co.uk/store/arm-servers.html https://www.avantek.co.uk/store/arm-servers.html
- aseipp 8y agoOut of curiosity I looked, and they actually already have pricing for the ThunderX2 Workstation from Gigabyte -- the very one mentioned in the article: about 10,000 GBP out of the box. https://www.avantek.co.uk/store/avantek-thunderx2-arm-workstation-thunderx2station.html https://www.avantek.co.uk/store/avantek-thunderx2-arm-workst... (They have ThunderX2 blades on the server section of their store with no prices yet, however.)
