    Currently! (And most the time - though I bounce between Austin, Houston a fair amount and make it to SA and Dallas with some regularity)

    Do I have another local?

    that is a pretty good find there for $75 with processors or $100 with processors, memory and heatsinks. But the Opteron 8419 EE dont seem to be cheap right now but could just get the board and wait.
    If you are more of a Intel fan maybe this will interest someone

    whats wrong with these?
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/AMD-Opteron-...item4ad104726c

    150$ for 24cores at 2.1ghz

    then pickup cheap rams

    24cores @ 2.1ghz + 16gb of ram = 210$

    500watt psu that supports nativly with 2x 8pin eps cables.

    280$ for a bronze efficiency 24core rig.

    heatsinks on the other hand will be the most expensive part..

    Yea those a pretty awesome systems he has for sure. Oh but the problem with the 8425 he's is they are $75 per one with four for sale total so that is $300 for the four cpus you would want. I had a quick look at those yesterday as any fun looking server board is temping to me to keep my sauna of a room warm.

    If you see a quad set of Opteron 8419 EE or Opteron 8425 HE for around $100 us let me know I would for sure build a system like that. I think I will need a bit more power to meet my goal of 100 million point by the end of the year lol.
