The USA once again took the top spot on the list of the world's fastest supercomputers. The Frontier supercomputer, located at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee and under development since 2019, is now the world's fastest supercomputer and also the first so-called exascale supercomputer. According to the website top500.org makes the Frontier's performance 1102 exaflops per second.

Frontier is more than twice as fast as the second-ranked supercomputer from Japan. The performance of all supercomputers listed on the TOP500 website was measured using the LINPACK benchmark, which measures system performance for a complex system of linear equations. The supercomputer is built on the HPE Cray EX235a architecture and uses processors from the same company that makes the graphics chip in the chipset Exynos 2200, which powers the series phones Galaxy S22.

The fastest supercomputer in the world has AMD EPYC 64C processors with a frequency of 2 GHz. It has a total of 8 processor cores and an energy efficiency of 730 GFlops/W. It is also the second most energy-efficient supercomputer (first place in this category was taken by its smaller version, which has 112 cores).
Even though the Exynos 2200 boasts one of the world's best graphics chip architectures (RNDA2), it couldn't beat rival chips from Apple, Qualcomm, and even MediaTek. At the same time, we were previously promised a miracle not a revolution in graphics performance. Now, there are also problems with simple mobile games like Diablo Immortal, which shows graphical artifacts on the Exynos 2200.
