This is the thread where you post pics/stats/use of your server!
Not an enthusiast one but here is our little but cute server. Runs ms server 2012.
When i'm being paid i always do my job through.
This is a little beast I built awhile ago for a HFT client.
Hardware was 3 servers sporting 3960x's overclocked to 4.8ghz water cooled.
I went and installed this beast at Equinix NY4. Last time I talked with the client he said I keep loading it but it doesn't slow down LOL
The server rack cabinet is mine and stayed here, I just need to fill it back up again.
Yes it is big, but fits right in my work area very well.
I should load it up with a huge water cooling systems and put my main rig inside LOL
Upgrading mine soon, will do some pics for this thread
Found one of my OLD build, not the current one
Specs on that one:

Using this right now but next Thursday some new goodies coming...

The above system has been a gem, solid and not one complaint.
100% load since April and even walked in one day when the house was 93F and cpu's at 81C and not a hiccup..
Crunch with us, the XS WCG team
The XS WCG team needs your support.
A good project with good goals.
Come join us,get that warm fuzzy feeling that you've done something good for mankind.
Last autumn, I built 3 servers for a study project. People might be interested in the hw configs.
Server number 1 (single socket):
Before building the faster server, this one served as a kind of testbed. The goal was to configure it for good I/O performance.
i7-3930K, 64GB, 32 x SSDs via 4 LSI controllers, Mellanox 40 Gbit/sec network adapter
Fast I/O needs parallelism, like cpu bound programs need multicore cpus (or gpu's, if the application fits to this hw approach)
Before settling on the Samsung SSDs, I tested approx. 12 different SSDs for my workload. A few of those can be seen here.
one of the major benefits of the 4 memory channels of the LGA-2011 socket. They allow decent read performance beyond any LGA-1155 cpu.
16.7 GB/sec
Combined workloads with a simultaneous load on the cpu and io subsystem proofed the value of watercooling. The stock and be quiet air coolers limited overall performance. Using a watercooler increased overall performance by 30% on the non-overclocked cpu.
1.3 mio iops with 20 ssd. cpu is limiting the io subsystem here.
For flexibility and to facilitate many reconfigurations, i used long sata cables. Optically not nice, but useful.
This picture was taken when the stock vent was still on. wprime and super pi aren't taxing the CPU as heavily as for instance ycrunch, so the benefit of watercooling might not be as big.
This server was used for the record runs in ycrunch on calculating pi for 25, 50 and 100 billion digits in the category "single socket systems"
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...=1#post5153478
The other 2 servers had different design goals. One was build for peak io performance on 2 sockets, utilizing 2 x E5-2687W, 256 GB and 48 ssd's. The goal with the third server was to get 72 terabyte capacity under 150 watt on the plug outlet using one E3-1245v2
cheers,
Andy

That's at your home Nirvash ?

Last year, I saw your Romley system. Soon after Intel released the E5-2687W CPUs ...
I did see many systems over the years, but from a total system perspective, this platform really shines.
Especially I/O is at an astonishing level. 6 x LSI controllers make shure data can pass from the ssd's via the pci express 3.0 lanes to memory without too much speed brakes.
During the haydays of the project, quite a few SATA cables left the box.
rgds,
Andy
OMG Andreas.. I don't know what to say.. Only that I love your servers..
