AMD has a nice one here It is also advertised because The Frontier also has the title of the most efficient supercomputer. At 52.23 gflops per watt, it surpassed the Japanese MN-3 system and placed at number one on the Green 500 list.
The other Cray EX-based EuroHPC computer on the list is with 151.9 PLFLOPS, IBM Summit with 148.8 PFLOPS, and its smaller version Sierra with 94.6 PFLOPS. China has two positions with Sunway and Tianhe-2A. Oceanlite and Tianhe-3 systems will also be on the list in the near future.
