Re: How Many CPUs You Use & How Did You Get Them?

15 core IB, hmm. If this thing supports HT that would be 30 simultaneous work units. That would make me swap out my oldest system...

Yup, HT..60 threads on a dualie..

Serious drool! Puts my dual hex systems to shame. crying

1 Dual hex X5670 w/7950
1 Dual hex X5650 w/7870 OC
1 3770K w/6950

Crunching for humanity since 2007!

Re: How Many CPUs You Use & How Did You Get Them?

I currently have 3 PC's for a total of 6 cores, and I have one GPU.

They are all running linux, two are laptops, and one is a tower.

The two laptops I have bought for school, and one of which is only on during the day while I am in my office working on it, the other laptop stays at home and crunches basically 24/7. The tower, I got via a friend whos employer was running a technology recylcing program, as they need to pay for each PC recycled, they were told, they could take parts/ machines, without any HD's and do with them as they pleased. So I got the tower for basically the cost of shipping, ( though a few hundred dollars we needed to get the parts I needed to make it runnable, and get a GPU).

I live in a small appartment so I tell myself in the winter while I have higher electricity bills the heating bill is less, so its a win win. But in the summer I often throttle back my crunching, on the very very hot days.
