I have 14 of these total, picked up from a customer recycling that I did some work for. All of them are working pulls, just out of warranty in 2023. I considered refurbishing them for eBay or local sale, but I'm moving yet again and I don't have the time or inclination for that amount of work...
Man, I remember when I broke top 100. Wasn't even a year after that curecoin came out and everybody mowed me down. I've fallen a bit down the charts since that happened:
Rank 705 of 2,935,669
I have earned 3,023,470,169 points by contributing 63,021 work units. My work unit was last recorded...
Thank you Gilthanis for keeping us informed and organized. I've put some effort into F@H and WCG since this started, signs point to an effective vaccine starting to roll out by end of year. I'll keep the farm going until spring, the office can use the heat anyway.
Why link the Parabricks software? For a second, I thought Nvidia had thrown their hat into the DC world, but it looks like it's just for researchers. Do we have people here in that field?
Thank you for the advice. I probably don't need the extra core count, but I am trying to keep up with WCG in the wake of a server crash. So I figured I'd start at the top and work down. That is a good model, and probably way more affordable, so it would be a good second choice.
I've got two Xeon ES chips that are 8 core currently, and they have a decent turbo, but I'm looking for a boos in single-threaded apps. So I need a matched pair of E5-2687W v3 or v4 or equivalent. I'll gladly throw in the 8-core chips for someone needing lower-end replacements for the chips...
