I will disappear from the forums once more to further my learning on the subject of Clusters. Anyone interested in computing billions of floating-point operations per second for the low cost of only a few thousand dollars should read this article: Microwulf Supercomputer (http://www.clustermonkey.net//content/view/2**/*/*/2/). I am currently building my mini-supercomputer (nothing special, just high end parts) and will post the tutorial of the build here when it's complete. I'm waiting on my 2GB of ****Mhz DDR* to arrive before I start the build.

What are you planning to do once you build this supercomputer? Crack hashes? Play games? Run Vista at normal speeds? :D

Anyways, it sucks that you're gonna go away from the forums again, when do you plan on coming back? But this task of yours seems cool enough, and $*000+ ain't gonna come from forum-surfing.

A few thousand dollars? That's enough to build a high-end gaming rig, but no supercomputer.
