>>59903176
Man that's a fuckton of RAM and I/O.

Indifference?

>>59903194
I/O is clearly overkill outside of niche applications, not that it hurts to have more, but holy shit that 16 DIMMs per socket and that much and bandwidth is crazy.

Well, I guess there are those that stick 6 GPUs on a 2P board, guess that will be nice.

Nice to see you to, Brian.

How does cooling work on these kind of server boards? I can see only passive on the pic, they have some fan in the case or how does it work

*notices ur unpopulated riser slots*

OWO what's this???

>>59903623
there's usually a bunch of fans up front (or behind the hdd bays i guess)

everything beyond them can get away with passive heatsinks because air is already being forced through

>>59903649
Why is this setup not more common in hobbyist pc builds? Shouldnt be that hard to sell a case with a bunch of case fans up front.

>>59903760
It's extremely loud.

Envy. I have a laptop with 50% of keys broken, 2GB ram, 1.5GHZ processor, no graphics card. Shitttttt.

this

>>59903776
also this
servers have to be space-efficient and the usual 1U and 2U rack servers have little fans (compared to usual desktop ones) running on high RPM because it's intended for datacenters where no one is around 99% of the time

I guess you could build a desktop with nothing but three 14cm fans in the front and passive heatsinks, but I think you'd need a lot higher air pressure for it to be effective so it would be louder.

>>59903865
1U racks are so sexy.
There's something about ultra dense hardware that just brings out the little girl in me.

Is there a latency hit to PCIe when using riser cards?

>>59903030
The feeling of need of setting up einstein@home BOINC workers on this machine.

>>59904114
None, they're passive and usually have all 16 lanes electrically connected.

Some Ribbon risers though have fewer lanes available.

>>59904116
what's the appeal of free work? You can mow my lawn if you want, for free.

>>59904176
If you have a top boinc server you can gloat at how rich you are.

Mowing your lawn makes you look like a poor nigger.

These 2 are not that same thing.

Could someone please explain how GPU are used outside of gaming? If it's pure number crunching I could understand why scientists and engineers would use them on their workstations. But why would something like this >>59903963 require two GPU's?

>>59903030
Like Krzanich on suicide watch.

>>59904328

number crunching

>>59904328
GPUs can do nothing but crunch or render, or hardware virtualization.
It's one of those 3.

>>59904328
number crunching in the cloud billed by the hour
or render farms for movie studios and shit

>>59903760
noise aside, that kind of cooling relies on tight clearances to work well

only way you'd get that in some normie case is for the case to come with an appropriately-sized heatsink

>>59904328
Sometimes you want to crunch a lot of numbers, beyond what a gaymen rig or workstation could do in a reasonable time

>>59903760
You can do something similar, if you pick components carefully. They sell 4U rack cases that take standard components that work like this, though they usually have an exhaust fan because there's space for it.

If the case provides (or you're willing to make) ductwork that fits with your components it makes this work a lot better.

FAP FAP FAP ....

Oh come on those are fucking huge.

might as well buy an enclosure and blades

What's the difference between blades and 1U racks?

>>59905740
Shared hardware leading to higher density.
Each blade has its own CPU, memory and disks but power supply, cooling and networking are shared for the whole enclosure.
Management of the whole thing is also a bit easier.

>>59904328
GPUs are insanely good at easy tasks that can be heavily parallized. If you have a task that fits this criteria then graphics cards are far more time and cost effective than processors.

>>59905740
IIRC blades have slots that are fixed in size while racks have rails that can fit various different sizes. Also they tend to all be stand-alone while racks have components that depend on eachother.

Not true. They are reconfigurable to a degree and you can have different sized blades all in one enclosure.
Some of the Itanium blades are the size of 4 normal (i.e. half-height) blades
