To all;
I'm at that point right now where all the other needed parts are in transit and should be here by next Wednesday then things will start to take off.
Don't want everybody feeling like they have to jump over here every time a post is made.
Beleive me, I'm wanting this beast up and running but for something like this a lot of high end parts were needed to be procured and that takes time.
Patience my friends it will happen and happen here first!

No, drooling is not allowed..
Slick huh?

You gotta be effing kidding me! How can I resist buying one of these now! For a month now I've been telling myself "No need to spend money you dont have. When you outgrow your current system, then you can build an SR-2"Just came across these for those folks with the big MountainMods cubes:

nononononono...No, to think that over in Japan there is a wealthy College Professor that has a maxxed out W5590 gainestown system with 64 gig of memory( I think) and I killed him with my W5590's, then when these hit,ahh, well if you see some crazed guy headed to my house with a samurai sword in one hand and a flag with a red circle in the middle for God's sake call and warn me!
I'm the one with the puny 64GB of ram on a pair of crappy Harpertowns...
That professor has maxed out W5590's with a more respectable 144GB of ram.

http://www.mountainmods.com/images/WATXPAN.jpg....how are you going to tease us like this.
My ext Ascension will be here monday; new mobo tray coming soon...Now this
who ever talked me into joining this forum
hold on gotta go get a towel since drooling isn't allowed
These are fricken sweet
I need to focus on mobo and cpu's first when they become available
I am guessing at least a $600 price tag on mobo if not a little more, but will be well worth it for a while

^^^, I am slowly learning how it all works
First it was Naekuh...now you
Thats alright, I love it here and it all goes to a good cause in the end for me. Will be on WCG/gpugrid and main system
I guess I am easily pressured/suckered or whatever the word I am looking for is.
You are just a intelligent, caring man who wants to usher in a new era of biomeical reasearch for the betterment of all humanity.
Well said...

(makes check out for 11 cents)
Also to all, all needed parts on the way so this bad boy is looking like it is going to be done and done with some pretty snazzy parts..
Yes, that word is "snazzy" and unknown to those under the age of 50!

Can't wait till next week is almost over; hopefully your parts will be in and we can flood the world with all our drool

Those FB-DIMMs better be ECC otherwise you are in for one hell of a problem...nononononono...

Time for a teaser.
Since I'm now sure of whats coming I can toss out a teaser on the build;
It will be in a beauuuuutiful Mountain Mods Extended Ascension with a horizontal motherboard tray. Mirror Black.
The board you know..
Memory: 6x2 gig of Corsair DDR3-OMG GT's..I'd describe them better but every time I look at the page and the specs I drool AND wet myself and it's embarrassing after the 12th time in one day!
Then the PSU: IMHO the best there is: PCP+C 1200W..
Now all I own for video cards are two identical EVGA 260GTX 192 cards.
Excellent cards and more than I've ever needed but for testing a gentleman is making a trip down from Canada and bringing 2-5970 cards with him just to juice this up a bit.
OOPS, forgot..The cpu's..Without giving too much away I'll just say this: There aren't better that I'm aware of!
There damned sure aren't any faster at default with 6 cores. That I'll guaranty you.
Stay tuned, it will be interesting.

Yes they are. All FB-DIMMs are ECC.
Actually, after having run it for more than a year now, the BIOS has yet to log a single memory ECC event. So this stuff is pretty reliable...
The only hardware errors I've ever gotten were when the NB overheated and when the motherboard burned out.

You have to forgive nn_step, brilliant software guy but when it comes to hardware he's all AMD and they never used FBDimms..Yes they are. All FB-DIMMs are ECC.

Speaking of ram... any idea when they're gonna sell affordable non-ECC 4GB DDR3 sticks?
Working with 12GB of ram is worst than being claustrophobic in a room the size of a coffin...

I actually don't care about Pi much... It's more about the algorithms that are involved.For me and most of us non Pi addicts 12 gig is plenty..
I do a couple other things that require a ton of ram... (Though they're only on the order of 8 - 32GB of ram.)
