SuperMicro H8QG6-F with four opteron 6172

[simplesam]

SuperMicro H8QG6-F motherboard, integrated video, bios version 1?, bios date April 2010, supermicro sc484 chassis, 4x opteron 6172 (2.1ghz), 64gb ecc ram, 2k8 server R2 trial (64-bit). $9 cpu heatsinks (startech fank8am2) from microcenter, modified to fit width.

I just got this together on Friday. Here are some early results.

wprime 2.03, 1024m test with 48 threads:
Best: 52.353 seconds.
Usual: 53 - 54 seconds.

wprime 1.55, 1024m test with 48 threads:
Best: 52.103 seconds
Usual: 52.5 - 54 seconds

cinebench 11.5 set to 48 threads:
Best cpu test: 24.99
Usual: 24.52 - 24.94

I'm not sure how many threads cinebench is running. Cinebench insists that there are 32 cores in the system. I manually set the preferences to 48 threads, but if I check the preferences a second later, it's back at 32 threads. So i'm not sure if the cinebench results are based on 32 or 48 threads.

nice setup.. easy way to tell how many threads are running is count how many squares start loading right at the start.. see if its 32 or 48.. pain in the ass to count it but im sure you could.. also you can check your core load running the task manager/performance tab as cinbench is running..

btw if you really want to test that thing could you try running a couple F@H A3 WU's on it with the winSMP client?

It would be a folding beast.

Wonder how many people a day you can mow over
