Eta,

I see that you are ready to engage your computing WARP engines and join SAM in that very exclusive 1,000,000 PPD BOINC points club.

Excellent work...

You can view a picture of one of Sam's rig at post #3 of the "7xxx sexiness" thread http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...=1#post5151646 If you read on, Sam does provide a few more details about that particular rig.

I am not in the club yet. But a few minutes ago my two new black holes two ASUS HD 7970 Direct CU II went into orbit. This should definitively allow the hyperspace jump over 1M Boinc points/day.
Thanks for the thread. Impressive machines. At the moment I have still one GPU board per CPU. I hesitate to do multiGPU yet. The fact that the CPU has to split itself among the two GPUs, I wonder if it does bring down the performances of the whole set.

Think one thread of your hex cores per GPU WU so a max of 12 per hex cpu..
Now put yourself in my shoes sitting here with a 32 thread machine with a MB that has the required 3xPCI-E X16 slots and no cards to try it.
Boggles my mind to think what this could do with 3-7970's running 32 GPU WU at once..
