 As such, GPUs tend to be very quick and efficient at computing certain types of parallel workloads.
 
-The `GPUComputing@Sheffield website
-<http://gpucomputing.shef.ac.uk/>`_ aims to facilitate the use of GPU computing within University of Sheffield research by
-providing resources for training and purchasing of equipment as well as providing a network of GPU users and research projects within the University.

-GPU Community and NVIDIA Research Centre
-----------------------------------------
-The University of Sheffield has been officially affiliated with `NVIDIA <https://research.nvidia.com/>`_ since 2011
-as an `NVIDIA CUDA Research Centre <https://developer.nvidia.com/academia/centers/university-sheffield-cuda-research-center>`_.
-As such, NVIDIA offer us some benefits as a research institution including
-discounts on hardware,
-technical liaisons,
-online training and
-priority seed hardware for new GPU architectures.
-For first access to hardware, training and details of upcoming events, discussions and help
-please join the `GPUComputing google group <https://groups.google.com/a/sheffield.ac.uk/forum/#!forum/gpucomputing>`_.

+Access to GPU resources
+-----------------------
 
 **Public GPU nodes are available to in Stanage, Bessemer and ShARC. These can be be used without acquiring extra permission.**
 
-Research groups also have an option to purchase and add nodes to the cluster to be managed by IT Services.
-For these nodes (e.g. :ref:`dcs_gpu_nodes_bessemer`),
-permission from the owner(s) of those nodes is required for access.
-
-The node owner(s) always have highest priority on the job queue but
-as a condition for the management of additional nodes on the cluster,
-the nodes are expected to be used as a resource for running short jobs during idle time.
-If you would like more information about having IT Services add and manage custom nodes,
-please contact ``[email protected]``.
+Research groups also have an option to purchase extra resources/priority in the cluster.
+To make use of these extra resources (e.g. :ref:`dcs_gpu_nodes_bessemer`) / this extra priority access 
+researchers need to be approved by the academic/researcher who made that purchase.
