Hydra/Hydro

[BaBa]

Here ya go some pic's of Hydra

Pre install

Thrown together, note the coolers overhang the first memory slot on each bank

Couldn't resist

Sorry about the size of the pics they are from a while ago when i first set her up.

 

[Biffa]

Dunno why but it makes me want to laugh looking at those pics. Very impressive s'ah. Love to see nice kit like that

 

[dekez]

That is a lot of cores! Very nice!

 

[PhillyDee]

That is truly computer porn . . . .

 

[Biffa]

So BaBa whats it really for? 32GB is a bit under utilized as a folder

 

[joeyjojo]

Merlin's beard!

Nice machine. What cpu are they?

 

[Scon]

I would have expected more power connections on that board.

 

[ToxicTBag]

Just come across a ToxicTBag2 in my boinc travels is this you MrT?

I errrr... i refuse to be drawn on the matter, my trial is over i could not bare to relive it

Its his evil twin!!!

Oi dont make me..i will..ya know i had 3 weetabix today

I thought that too!

Regarding power it has 4 connectors three under the yellow tags, had to get pcie to atx converter cables to power the thing up or it trips the overcurrent on the Hx1000 psu

32GB was the easy way to get quad channel per cpu and if i ever run einstein on it that uses about 250mb per instance

Cpu's are opteron 6176se 12 core at 2.3ghz thats 48 cores of folding goodness, on the current workunit ( 6900 bigadv ) thats 09.03 frame time and 224500ppd according to HFM.

Mr Biffa may know better but its the fastest ive seen on bigadv

I realy hope Bulldozer turns out to be kickass as the 16 core opteron version should drop into this with only a bios upgrade

 

[dekez]

Freakin awesome is what that is sir!!! 224,500ppd Do you know how much power it is drawing from the wall?

Can't wait to see that bad boy water cooled, I hope your going to put a lot of thought in to which way the tubes connect the cpu blocks

Ah yes, see them now!

 

[BaBa]

I would think its pulling 650w or close to, maybe a little more.

 

[BaBa]

Pulled the trigger on the water the other day after getting her running stable with a desk fan blowing into the case

Should arrive today, hope I didn't miss anything in the order

Not as cheap as i had hoped but then quad sockets never going to be cheap

 

[BaBa]

First look at the build

Just tryin to work out how it all goes togther

 

[LiamJ]

Oh snap.

 

[Scon]

That is crazy!

How much ram?

What case?

NOICE

 

[BaBa]

32 Gig of ram, its in an old Codegen S-201 that was my server for several years.

Ive modified the case extensively to take two rads a 420 and 280, made a custom tray to take this board and lots of other bits and bobs

Oh baba that is a thing of beauty!
Careful though, not sure if its the angle but it looks like there is a bit if a kink forming at the top.
