    a motherboard with 5 PCI-e slots
    2 PSUs since this rig will probably pull 1.5kW
    Water cooling setup since we are already spending like $15000+
    Upgraded power socket to at least 20A

    Mydog was getting 110,000 boinc ppd with 6 threads on each GPU. Using the above setup will allow you to have 40 GPU threads supported with 40 CPU threads. Possibly 1 mil per day since the CPU speed is a lot slower.

    Now, who wants to go for it? lol

    6 WU's made 110,000 Boinc PPD


    And you couldn't do 40 GPU WU's because you'd run out of CPU cores/threads, I would say max 32 but I'd reccomend 30. Testing 8 WU's now on the 7970 and the can't seem to get out of sync so that the load evens out. The WU's act a bit like the traffic in the rush hour, as soon as one or two leaves the GPU and start on the CPU the others play catch up as the GPU load is getting easier. I also get 100% CPU usage on my 3770K when the WU's finish on the GPU.
