The Vienna Scientific Cluster (VSC) is a collaboration of several Austrian universities that provides supercomputer resources and corresponding services to their users.

The current flagship systems of the VSC family are VSC-4 and VSC-5 , the fastest supercomputers in Austria. The systems show a similar performance according to the TOP500 list, but due to their different technical equipment, VSC-4 and VSC-5 can be optimally used for different computing tasks.

VSC-4 , installed in 2019, consists of 790 water cooled nodes, each with two Intel Skylake Platinum 8174 processors with 24 cores, interconnected with 100 Gbit/s OmniPath, and reaches a performance (Rmax) of 2,7 PFlop/s. The cores of the VSC-4 have larger vector units, which, among other advantages, also explains its good ranking in the TOP500 list.
