Running 5 rigs, one of which is down due to hardware malfunction. Apart from the number of computers being used for running boinc, I guess it will be interesting to see some snaps of the how these computers have been set up - something like a rack or a farm. Before the GPU crunching began, I had lots of barebone systems crunching everywhere in my house. This site should give a good idea of how it would be. |

I have 3 clusters. Intel GPU cluster has 4 x i7's currently running Nvidia GPU cluster has 5 x i7's currently off Pi cluster has 3 x Raspberry Pi's currently running None doing SETI work. Pics on the blog if people are interested. BOINC blog |

2 rigs -- 1) i7/950 crunching 24/7 -- (AP CPU & GPU primarily -- MB CPU & GPU when AP not available), Milkway GPU & Einstien CPU when Seti available. 2) i7/930 crunching 24/7 -- MB CPU & GPU only. I don't buy computers, I build them!! |

I have two rigs, both are Quad Core 2 and each have one GTX 670 running 3 tasks. |

3 atm but I'm considering cutting that down to 2. Cheers. |

I only have 1 desktop. 24/7 on seti. My brother is crunching on my account with his tiny old PC as well. With each crime and every kindness we birth our future. |

Currently running 4, One major cruncher, one medium cruncher and 2 CPU only Linux boxes which are used elsewhere but follow the original BOINC ethic of donating spare clock cycles. I have run up to 9 at once but running costs and cooling costs were drawing strange looks from "The Minister Of Finance" and when I got a query from the Authorities questioning why my electricity bill was so high (they thought I was growing things indoors) I thought it was time to cut back. :) T.A. |

Actively running 26 on SETI@Home with PrimeGrid as their backup. With another 6 in reserve if I can get more of that green papery stuff that pays for things. SETI@home classic workunits: 93,865 CPU time: 863,447 hours Join the [url=http://tinyurl.com/8y46zvu]BP6/VP6 User Group[ |
