Good to see someone make use of a 1200w PSU.

Oh, hold on,

I plan on building out to 19 GTX295s (38 GPUs) initially. Four racks plus three other GTX295 boards in my other computers. When I reach that point I'll probably wait for the 300 series nVidia boards before I make further investment.

Looks like we need to do some recruiting. This guy alone would help us keep #3.

LOL, even at wholesale prices this guy is nutz! No recession there eh? I think he should stop living at home and get a girlfriend instead! Hey, there's nothing wrong with 'the cause' but this is just insane! :screwy:

It's like when I was talking to a manic depressive who said he was going to get a Tesla, hasn't even put up one point on our team. Hmm, maybe he reconsidered the expense or I laughed at him too much and he's folding for another team.:rolleyes: It would have been nice!:santa:

Just imagine what his electric bill must be. We're talking several hundred dollars a month, just for the power consumed by the computers. And then there is the heat produced by all of that.

Thats crazy. I freaked out when i saw my rig was pulling 500 watts. He must have one hell of a job to pay for all of that.

Seriously, he must have lost someone very dear to him to do that.

My brilliant father Tony and his equally brilliant brother Greg have advanced Huntington’s Disease which they inherited from their mother. I myself have taken the test for the disease and am negative for the gene.

On his About page.

This is pretty great stuff! Glad to see someone has the resources to pump into the project.

Thanks for that man. I went to his site and just drooled over the hardware instead of really looking.:o

Definitely. Although it seems like the team he is on is for people who have been effected by huntingtons, and he implies in the latest blog entry that he is the founder of that team...

oh well. We could really use some shaking up in out top 5. They're all so smug sitting up there....:rolleyes:
