lol your not alone.. theres a reason i only build a new system every 2 - 3 years.. because every time i do.. it turns into the exact same problem your having.. hell if it was me.. i would of gone to a store.. bought 2 gtx 285's.. thrown em in and sold the quadro's on ebay or shipped em back at this point.. since in reality.. the gtx 285's would do just as good as the quadro's.. and only cost 1/4 of the price..
Update: I just got an:
NMI: Memory Parity Check
Memory Parity error
Never seen that before.
I have just written Supermicro, and will hopefully get to call them before CoB today, to update the case information and bug them on the phone.
Here's the one I found: http://www.colfax-intl.com/ms/tesla/1998-CX1475.html
from the chart:
X8DA3 Tested with 2x HIC cards installed.
RHEL 5 64-bit Check mark
&
X8DA3 RHEL 5.2 64-bit Tested with 2x Tesla C1060
simultaneous copies of AutoCAD 2010 MEP x64, NavisWorks 2010 MEP x64 and Revit 2010 MEP x64, rendering in real time, all in 3D. the customer will be receiving point cloud data from the primary on the contract that they just go, and then will be using those files to render the environment, and then modify and manipulate their objects inside of the laser scanned representation of the actual environment that they will do the work in.
point cloud data will be upwards of 700MB files, just for the environment. expectation is that these will soon grow exponentially larger in size. customers own data sets, per object are anywhere from 2-100MB per object. These sizes only apply to the renderings happening on one monitor, in AutoCAD 2010, itself. The second screen will be running Revit for real time renderings of the changes taking place on monitor number one. NavisWorks will also be running.
Okay. So, we probably should talk offline. The email address I already gave you is fine.
They want the wrong answer to the wrong question. What they're talking about doing there is both madness and not going to work. Secondly, finalized render work should NEVER BE DONE ON NVIDIA UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. nVidia has significantly lower image quality, and that's just cold hard fact. Any finalized rendering work should only be performed on 3DLabs REALiZM 800's, FireMV or FirePro. Anything that involves lighting should be done purely on 3DLabs when possible.
Really, though, it sounds like their workflow is badly mangled. More likely, they should be using a pre-processor attached to SAN, given the dataset sizes, and feeding probably an LSI 8480-powered RAID5 using 10k's or 15k's on the workstation side. (RAID5 for performance, not capacity.) I'd need to sit and talk with 'em to be certain though, but it really sounds like up-front data conversion is a better route.
