I would like to build a setup that would get me 500k+ ppd with cpu folding. What are your thoughts?
Two SR-X
Pros:
- overclock
- better for single threaded applications like games
- fit in standard cases
Cons:
- will cost more since the psu, mem, hdd, mb will be separate
- will be limited to 24 threads per box for hexcore
4P 6174
Pros:
- lower cost
- all in one board
- 48 cores - will meet the bigadv requirements for a while
Cons:
- custom water cooling
- hard to find case to fit supermicro board
- not as good for gaming
- not sure if sli or crossfire is supported
