Did I count 4 cpus and 4 separate memory banks?

What the hell kind of board is that? Sjeesh I've been out of the pc building business for far too long

In case you're wondering, just like me:

This particular computer has four quad-core Opteron processors, 32 GB of memory, two VelociRaptor hard drives in RAID1, and six 1 TB hard drives in RAID 5.

You might need to under-clock it :mrgreen:

For $16,000 it better do more than just compute. :mrgreen:

I'll think I'd just buy a $2000,- computer and spend the rest on beer and hookers :guydrunk:

That's interesting that the radiator is on the outside. I guess they didn't want the person spending $16,000 to have to clean anything inside of the case. And yeah, spending $16,000 it better do more than a normal computer so I sure hope that it keeps clean.

It would be awesome if it were sealed and cleaning involved hosing it down with water to clean the radiator on the side, but I have a feeling that would be a bad idea with how it is currently set up and how much it costs :lol:

I'd like to see a $10,000 desk to go with it though...and maybe move the radiator from the wart on the side of the case to something on the desk with longer tubing connecting it all together.

Why does it have a hose in it ?

by **Egaladeist** » Wed Mar 25, 2009 10:53 pm

well...according to my very little experience on hardware forums :mrgreen:

it's a water-cooled cpu.

I thought it might be for the addition of a bong - SD would love one of those :mrgreen:

Some expensive bong :mrgreen:

It's a lot cheaper to make your own with an empty (plastic) coke bottle and a pen :mrgreen:
