( OT) Supercomputer Built With 8 GPUs

- Something to think about:

Researchers at the University of Antwerp in Belgium have created a new
supercomputer with standard gaming hardware. The system uses four
NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GX2 graphics cards, costs less than €4,000 to
build, and delivers roughly the same performance as a supercomputer
cluster consisting of hundreds of PCs.


The guys explain that 8 GPU's get the same performance as 300 Intel
Core 2 Duo 2.4GHz processors

Cost is 4,000 Euros.
