You mind getting outta my head?Originally Posted by [XC] Synthetickiller
I was thinking the exact same thing.
My question is, "Why didn't you go with something more extreme, like an athlon II?"
We need some pics of the board and cpus asap. I wanna see what 24 cores looks like
Although, it'd be cool to see the CPU and board on LN2 or DICE as well. If you can find a TEC system powerful enough (and can feasibly pull it off) that'd be awesome.

Would be lots of fun if they changed the avatar to an "awakened" Dave once the board arrives

The CPU coolers? Doh.
yup, A5's are in stock but they don't look that hot.

That's crazy, Movieman. Are there any other suppliers?
Not that I know of. I talked with Dynatrons main office in the US.
Decent folks to deal with, just the A6 isn't ready yet.

This for new logo when you finally get your manly dualie...Funny!

Shouldn't Supermicro have a board ready? Afaik AMD has been shipping Magny-Cours since January to "close partners" so there has to be boards out there...

omg.... I need to stop surfing XS this weekend. My sides are killing me.
Doesnt Alpenföhn Nordwand, aka Spire TherMax Eclipse II (aka many others) have one of the largest bases on the market at the time?

I'm assuming the board will take just as long (hope notFunny!

Other than those Dyna's, the only other option you have is to ask AMD (JF-AMD) to send you a couple of spare Magny-Cours heatsinks (preferably with heatpipes).

We'll see.. Until I get a definate on the board I'm just going to hold off and see what happens.I'm assuming the board will take just as long (hope not

I'm hearing there is a huge demand for the boards and the "big" accounts are being taken care of first..
I'll get one, just a matter of time.
I could call Dave Graham and probably get a Tyan but you know me, I want a Supermicro board..

@MM
so how long do you think it will be until you are able to get ahold of a mobo? Im itching to get a 4P 6168 system put together and am also having a hard time getting my digets on a motherboard and heatsinks.
Do you think the supermicro (H8QGi-F for me)will be the best hardware for a software OC or have you heard of any other more OC friendly mobo's comming out soon?
Right now you know as much as I do.
Your looking at the single socket G34, I'm looking at the dual:
http://www.supermicro.com/Aplus/moth...x0/H8DGU-F.cfm
As to OC your guess is as good as mine but I do know that SM generally has no hard line stipulations against OC'ing on single socket boards like they do on the duals..
I don't want to bug them too much.
With both Intel and AMD rolling out new platforms at the same time I imagine they are up to their necks trying to keep up.

I looking to get a 4P...quad processor (48core) system. The work im doing requires as many processors as my meager wallet can get a hold of...last place i worked i used a 5500core cluster.
Ill keep my eyes open for heatsinks...i might just cad/cnc an adaptor if i can find a good heatsink with a big enough footprint to cover the CPU but not run into any of the memory etc.
Your meager wallet is going to be meager empty building that system.
4-6168's is app $3000.00
Board? Generally quad socket starts at a grand and goes up, key word is up
And then a MINIMUM of 4x1 gig per socket, thats $1600.00
Then the 1000-1200w PSU..$380-$550
And those quad boards are SWTX protocol,13x17".. Not manycases for them..
Your at least at $6000.00 with still case and drives to add but good luck.

Meager being relative...the place i used to work spent the better part of $10million on the cluster. a $6K personal investment feels relatively small but yes its still alot of money for me.
Ive already got the case/powersupplys/etc and 48gb of memory. I just need the processors, motherboard and heatsinks.
http://www.supermicro.com/products/c...48TQ-R1200.cfm
Are there any good heatsinks out there that already have a large enough footprint to cover the heatspreader but dont fit the G34 bolt pattern?
still no coolers even the one's on newegg don't come with a heat sink....
HAVE NO FEAR!
"AMD fallen angel"
You didn't get the memo? 1 hour 'Fugger time' is equal to 12 hours of regular time.
So wait....Your meager wallet is going to be meager empty building that system.

You had two possibilities of getting these...
"slim"
or
"none"
You hoped for slim, and slim payed off?
Smile
Dave is this OK ( out of interest, not that I am willing or can pay it)? not considering shipping:
opty 8 cores: $266 IIRC x 4 : around 1100 bucks
Smicro mobo: a tad under $900
memos: 12 gigs: a tad under <500
questions:a 300 bucks psu ( the hx1000w is 230 ) will power this, right? memos are out of proportion if "only" using 12 gigs taking the amount of cores as a reference, right?
"Study hard my young friend"[/B].

Woody: It's not a laser! It's a... [sighs in frustration]
If that is what you want then get it..and you only need 6x1 gig for that system for what you will do..
