Also known as NTU Titan
Operated by Nanyang Technological University .
Phase 1 seed dataset, compiled by hand. These rows were built from public operator, laboratory and vendor sources. A mechanical second-reader pass has since fetched every cited source: 1263 of 1345 systems have a readable citation that names them, and 56 are genuinely weakly sourced. Every claim carries its source and a confidence tier. Treat anything below verified as a lead, not a citation.

Figures are as last publicly reported for the configuration described below, not a live measurement. Where a system was upgraded in place, the post-upgrade configuration is shown and the earlier one appears in the timeline.
What this machine is made of
One row per supplier relationship. “Supplier at build” is the company that shipped the part at the time; where that company has since been acquired, the parent it rolls up to today is shown beside it. That distinction is what makes ticker-level aggregation possible across a thirty-year dataset.

The read
Nanyang Technological University's GPU supercomputer, listed by TOP500 as a Dell PowerEdge XE9680L system with Intel Xeon Platinum 8570 56-core 2.1 GHz CPUs, NVIDIA H200 SXM5 141 GB GPUs, NDR InfiniBand and Rocky Linux 9.7: 29,200 cores, 8.80 PFlop/s Rmax, 13.44 PFlop/s Rpeak, 109.585 TFlop/s HPCG, 208th in June 2026 (https://top500.org/system/180465/, system URL https://www.ntu.edu.sg/hpcc). The NTU High Performance Computing Centre page names no hardware, node count or power, so TOP500 is the only source and the tier is reported. Not given a list-appearance row because the June 2026 edition is already full in this dataset.

Source check
We fetched this system's own citations and recorded whether each page actually mentions it. This is a corroboration signal, not a fact check, and it is published so you can see how well the sourcing holds up rather than take it on trust.
| Cited source | Result | Found on the page |
|---|---|---|
| top500.org | names system and part | Intel Xeon Platinum 8570, NVIDIA H200 SXM, NVIDIA InfiniBand NDR (Quantum-2), Rocky Linux |
