The tall guy in the video with the apparent bald spot is me. Damn didnt realize I had lost that much hair.

What programs are you guys running on this cluster? Are you using OpenMosix or MPICH2?

[2point8GHz]

will this runs Sims2 at maximum setting?

To put this into a greater perspective, a Core 2 Duo processor puts out a *theoretical maximum* 4 flops per clock (per core) and runs somewhere between 1.8GHz and 2.66GHz.

That means that an average (2GHz) processor operating at theoretical peak efficiency, your average Core 2 Duo processor would put out about 16 gigaflops. Real performance probably peaks at about 70-80% of that, which means about 12-13 gigaflops.

hmm. good point

[tipoomaster]

wonder if it will run crysis :)

joke

[grnday11700]

haha that would be amazing. and really cool to watch. how many fps do you think you'd get?

[tipoomaster]

with 60 Teraflops? maybe 20-25 at most, lol.

[grnday11700]

haha once again, very good point

[elliott4555]

dude, at 60 teraflops, you would get like 45 frps at max settings.
