SuperMicro Tesla GPU Server running Pyrit

This is a SuperMicro SuperServer 6016GT-TF-TM2 rack server running Pyrit WPA-PSK key generation. More specificity create tables of PMKs to do quick password look-ups against a captured 4-way handshake.
The server is configured with two Tesla C1060 GPU cards, Xeon X5560 quad-core 2.8 GHz, 12 GB memory, and WD Velociraptor HDD.

This is so awsome. how much those cards run ya? paycheck or two i imagine.

Actually, this was only lended to me for a week.

The PS3 might have, assuming you were an ungodly genius when it came to writing code, roughly 500GFLOPs of single precision, floating point power. In reality, for computing, you're probably only going to be able to use the 200 GFLOPs provided by the Cell BBE. This 1u box has two Tesla C1060 units, each with about 1 TFLOP of single precision floating point ability. In other words, it's about 10 times more powerful than the Cell BBE or four times more powerful than Cell/RSK together.

@ianmcmill lol alot of effort their huh?

[ianmcmill]

@PsiloCybinDreamX "So technically your just blowing crap out of your mouth. have fun good day :) " this is what i was actually saying. after browsing your youtube videos and comments my suspicion is confirmed

[PsiloCybinDreamX]

@ianmcmill actually man, after your comment its apparent you have no clue about tesla or gpu hardware to say the least, dont even comment back. their is no version gtx of tesla its a different line of gpu's and thats one of many series. also alot of the teslas dont even have any type of video out.So technically your just blowing crap out of your mouth. have fun good day :)

[PsiloCybinDreamX]

@ianmcmill also do you even know what I mean by a gtx card or do you not know anything whatsoever about gpu hardware?

[PsiloCybinDreamX]

@ianmcmill you totally missed what I was saying, your wording just completely ruined your argument. actually your first comment totally did you in on this

[PsiloCybinDreamX]

@ianmcmill they use them for folding all the time

[ianmcmill]

@PsiloCybinDreamX tesla cards do share the same gpu as a gtx card. they are expensive because of the support from nvidia. tesla cards not intended to fold or do seti calcs. they are used for arch. visualization where large amounts of data need to be processed. they are no gaming cards nor are they better in calculating PMKs compared to their gtx versions. the more you say the more you convey that you do not have much knowledge about tesla

[PsiloCybinDreamX]

@ianmcmill i know one of the major things their used for is folding@home Im pretty sure you know what that is

[PsiloCybinDreamX]

@ianmcmill yeah, ide never use a tesla for anything, the only thing i would do is if i got one of the ones that has a dvi out on it is benchmark it in games to see how shitty it performs compared to like an 8800gtx or something. but it would be cool if they had some drivers to use one of the cheapest ones the c870 that costs like 100 dollars on ebay for physx. ive seen tesla cards do calculation of the orbits of our solar system and stuff like that. thats gotta be physics at its best

[ianmcmill]

@PsiloCybinDreamX all what counts in this topic is calculating pmks for 4way handshakes. my single gtx260 does 11k pmks. it's only a fraction of the price of a C1060.

the quintessence in calc. pmks is the availability cheap resources to get the best result.

no doubt tesla cards have their right to exist for specialized tasks but not for calc. pmks. just my opinion.
