Hey guys

Interesting question here for some one who might know how this is done.
I do have a project that could use something like this but I am trying to wrap my head around how all this is configured.

Take a look at this youtube. 53GHz in ONE PC Case (HR) by coolermasteronline
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAZwHDGz-3I&feature=mh_lolz&list=LLP_EyLosuXho

you can run all 5 boards as one system using linux. One board as control and the other boards running as nodes to share the workload.

Can anyone shed some light on how this might be configured software wise ?

Hardware wise I would use a completly different setup, but I think it would work the same really.

This appears to have Win 7 running on 4 systems, then the 5th which is running Lunix acts as the controller to treat the other 4 as one node. So I would also think this box might have some sort of router inside or out to tie all these together. Of course just one monitor would be nice, running the others headless and using something like Radmin to remote into them when needed.

Thanks for any input :)

I found this. Look at this now to see how this all works.
