kick ass rig: 2x dual clover in a 1U case

total cost would be under 10 k ( no drives and no vga)
It's sexy but it's not dollar wise. really, a Q6600 on a rack is the smart way to run..either air or water cooled depending on your climate.
Clovers are sweet and I think that with the new 45nm xeons we might see 35K in a day from one box, the quads just can't be beat.
I'm waiting for someone to get a "good" Q6600 G0, water cool it and run it at 4200 24/7..At that speed it will be the best deal for a cruncher by far when points vs investment is added in. Maybe 21K a day from a quad like that.
