MrValentine said:My thoughts started with a lotto winning dream (as a lot of mine do). But I have decided that even for a lotto winner 120 machines for folding is just to much.
120 $200 processors = $24k
120 $100 mobo's = $12k
120 $100 sticks ram = $12k
60 $120 1U cases = $7.2k (guess on price)
60U rack = $1.3k
I figured that is the minimum you need to get something going, and your already at $56k+. Even if I did win the lotto thats just crazy bank to spend, although it would be sweet to set up and earn major nerd points.
BTW the reason I went with single proc mb is because i'm not sure how to config a network boot setup so it assigns affinity to processes. If that would be possible the hardware setup could be simplified with dual proc mobos.
wonder if I could get $100k grant for something like this?
