My World Community dreams

I dream of having 10 Super Micro SYS-F627G3-FT+ servers with 12 Tesla K10 each. That probably would put this computer in the Top500.org supercomputer list.

That would be 120 Tesla K10 and 80 Xeon E5-2660 cpus. (1280 cores and 368,640 GPU cores)

All this power crunching work units for the sole purpose of World Community Grid and Folding@Home projects.

That investment would be about $400,00.00. Just gotta keep playing the Lotto!

The ESC4000 G2 is also one of my dreams. The servers are cheaper, hold 4 GPU's and fewer cpus but they kick butt. 200 of these with 4 Tesla K10 should also make the Top500.org list.

"The ESC4000/FDR G2’s architecture makes it an excellent choice for heavy-duty calculations and modeling-intensive applications. ASUS-powered SANAM supercomputers excel in fields such as aerospace, weather forecasting and simulating chemical reactions and particle movement. The TOP500-ranked SANAM HPC cluster employs 210 ASUS ESC4000/FDR G2 servers with 420 AMD FirePro™ S10000 dual-GPU (graphics-processing unit) modules and an array of 420 Intel Xeon® E5-2650 eight-core processors — giving a total of 38,400 processor cores."
