I purchased ten HP Small Form Factor DC 7800s from EBAY for $109 each including shipping. These come with intel Core 2 Duo E8300 processors at 2.83Ghz. These are producing 1500 - 2000 average credit per day. But I am considering whether to get more of these machines, or to upgrade the ones I have. I am thinking of low power GPU for math co-processing.

These computers have 250 watt power supplies.
I used a watt meter and found they pull no more then 70 watts during start up and full running.

Would such a coprocessor be a productive addition, or should I just keep on buying more computers:shock:

Thanks for any and all comments, observations, or recommendations!
