Hey thanx for the heads up. D'oh, I shoulda just Googled it myself.
I don't think the current crop of folders is going to concern themselves with these types of boards. From reading that URL it's worrying between $6,000,000 and $10.000.000 dollars a year in light bills. I almost freaked when someone on this forum said his was $450 a month, but I imagine that's for a whole bunch of machines Even $450 a month was out of pocket for me, I fold petty much 24/7 with three machines and my bill may have increased $8 or $9 dollars. Could you imagine a $10,000,000 light bill?

sounds pretty reasonable for the board
One Advance board can perform up to 50 GFLOPS of
sustained performance while consuming less than 25 Watts (so where did such high light bills come from)
each board has 2 CSX600 coprocessors each has 96 cores that executes
up to 25 billion 64-bit floating point operations per second
from reading the on the website it seems you would need one board per cpu, (basically the same as we are doing with gpu folding) to handle the non floating point parts of the software
so at a retail price of $8000 dollars , That works out at $42 per core

Lets all chip in. LOL. There was allot of speculation on the price. Maybe they'll price drop to 1000 (in about 10 years)

You guys in the Britiania, go see if clearspeed has a outlet store, may be we can pick up a refurb for under 4000 pounds.

lol!
I would chip in
I wonder when stanford will have a client out for it. I bet they probably have a couple boards already...thats some serious folding power.
