Ok, will do it. Should get the majority of the parts on the 28th.
Care to tell us what kind of heat CrayZ2 will be creating? I mean the specs.
I'm first trying to use up some older stuff I have laying around but would like to build one from the ground up. Yours ( McSwains ) and the multi-GPU of Robs rock as well as the one/s Reed use. I can most likely only build one dedicated folder in the near future and would like to make it a real asset. I'm hoping between all the units working, we could get a few more on board from reading what is being used and folks getting on board knowing what they should be able to expect.
There's a thread, but here's the basics:
It's an Intel S5520SCR dual Xeon Workstation motherboard with 12gb of Kingston ECC DDR3-1333 server RAM. It's in the matching Intel SC5650WS Workstation case which includes a 1000w powersupply.
It runs 2x Xeon E5620 CPU's: 80w, 4-core with Hyperthreading, 2.4ghz.
It has 4x Hitachi 1TB 7200rpm drives in RAID 1 with a hot-spare and a backup drive.
It has a 1gb ATI video card (5650?) with a 28" monitor, but it will end up with 2x 28" monitors.
O/S is Win7-64 Pro. Software is Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended and KeyCreator (CADKEY).
It is going to be used for marking up blueprints, running CAD software, driving a 42" wide scanner, and as a backup file server.
For F@H, it generates 16k PPD on SMP (6701's) or 41k PPD running BigAdv jobs. TPF for BigAdv is ~27 minutes. It consumes 255 watts max when folding, and 130w when idle.
