Quick answers
HPC6 is 477.9 Pflop/s, an official figure.
HPC6 is labeled Official. Ratified by a governing body such as the FIA, World Athletics or Guinness World Records.
The figure cites TOP500, “TOP500 June 2026, HPC6 row.”
HPC6 is 8th of 10 on Fastest Supercomputers.
Mechanism
HPC6 is ranked on its June 2026 TOP500 HPL Rmax of 477.90 Pflop/s. Rmax is the Linpack rate the benchmark measured. Rpeak, published beside it, is a theoretical peak and is not the sort key.
HPC6 is an HPE Cray EX235a at Eni, with AMD EPYC processors, 64 cores at 2 GHz, and MI250X accelerators, on Slingshot-11, running RHEL 8.9. The table lists 3,143,520 cores, Rpeak 606.97 Pflop/s, and 8,461 kW.
HPC7 at the same company uses MI300A accelerators and posts 571.50 Pflop/s. The two rows are different machines. This rank is HPC6’s own HPL Rmax, not a combined Eni total.

Rpeak is 606.97 Pflop/s. HPC7, also at Eni, is a separate row.
Reference
Context
HPC6 is number eight on the June 2026 TOP500, and it is a different machine from Eni’s HPC7 at number six. The HPL Rmax is 477.90 petaflops per second. The row is an HPE Cray EX235a with AMD 3rd-generation EPYC processors, 64 cores at 2 GHz, and AMD Instinct MI250X accelerators, on Slingshot-11, running RHEL 8.9, at Eni in Italy. The table lists 3,143,520 cores, Rpeak 606.97 petaflops per second, and 8,461 kW. The figure is 477.90 Pflop/s, qualifier official.
HPC7 uses the newer MI300A node and a higher Rmax. The two Eni systems are separate rows because the TOP500 lists them as separate systems.
