X-bit Labs spotted that Dell will soon start shipping HPC servers with Fermi-based NVIDIA Tesla cards.

Dell, one of the world’s largest makers of servers, on Wednesday announced new blade machines aimed database processing or high-performance computing (HPC) applications that can optionally integrate Nvidia Tesla 2000-series computing boards. Dell becomes the second top server maker to adopt GPGPU technology by Nvidia.

The new PowerEdge M610x brings a new set of capabilities to Dell’s blade portfolio and provides customers database acceleration and expanded stream-processing capabilities by integrating solutions like Nvidia Tesla 2050 computing acceleration card or Fusion-IO’s ioDrive Duo solid-state drive.
