World's Greenest Supercomputer Not the Fastest
I'm pretty sure that it can.
Supercomputers are tasked with performing massive calculations that can't be practically done in any sort of reasonable time on regular computers. For that, supercomputers have special power and cooling needs, but as we can see from the Department of Information Science at the University of Tokyo, supercomputers can be green-minded too.
The Japanese supercomputer system, called Grape-DR, is ranked as the greenest supercomputer on the planet. Its performance over power is 815.43 MFLOPS per watt, besting the second place IBM's 773.38 MFLOPS per watt in Germany.
The Grape-DR is composed of 64 Core i7-920 microprocessors, and Asus motherboard, 18 GB of DDR3 memory, and a custom accelerator board.
The custom accelerator board, developed by a professor at the University of Tokyo, enhances performance of the Core i7-920 system by about five times, according to TechOn.
While the Grape-DR is the most energy efficient supercomputer in the world, it's not even near the fastest. Its total performance of 23.4 TFLOPS is below the 24.67 TFLOPS needed to crack the top 500 supercomputers in the world.

but you dont have access to it, so it is all assumption sigh
I'm interested in the accelerator board myself though.

thoses numbers seem to be too low, you can beat that with bunch of graphic cards like TESLA packages
yah, this is my old rig... i needed to upgrade.
This isn't the fastest computer, but the most efficient supercomputer. The Tesla rigs are definitely fast and right now a Tesla supercomputer is #2, about the Cell supercomputer. That computer IS listed in the Green 500
Can what? Play Crysis?
There, I said it, thumbs-down ahoy!
I'm interested in the accelerator board myself though.
Well done, you made my day!
Or Mafia II...
I'd hate to be the new guy asked to install a cable management system on that bad boy.
