This should be fun to play with. I just installed it in my rack tonight. 80 cores and 320GB of memory.

dear god,

today I got so many cores and memory I'm going to need your help to come up with home uses for it.

-OP

(kidding. very impressive!!!)
 
I'd settle for one or two.

I wish I could find some heavy iron cheap
 
Op, I bet that thing makes heat and uses tons of power ?

Bet it cost you a pretty penny too..
 
So uh, what exactly does one do with a small HPC cluster at home? Become the Ultimate Folding Champion?
 
It was a company related buy, I hope. Please say that no normal person can afford such a monster.
 
That is LGA 771 or socket F era... Unfortunately not the best for folding no...
doubtful would get him in the top 20...
I think first place has 192 cores in 4 boxes.

I do however envy a dedicated rack to play in...
 
My manager likes to keep us in the toys. It's cheaper than sending us to $7000 week long courses (though we get 4-6 of them a year). We get all kinds of play time with this stuff when it's sitting at home next to you.

I also brought home a Dell R910. I'll have to get a picture of my rack....my primary rack :)

Nice rig! Is this processor blade? Do you mind to show more photo and share something about how to setup this?
