I have been asked by my company to design a beefy ass cracking box and could use a second opinion.
I will have a broker box which will dish out the jobs (virtualcl) and a bunch of slaves which should be easily addable in the future.
Broker spec:
Graphics Card 9970 (x3) (When they are released, if they are any good)
Motherboard Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD7
CPU AMD FX-8150
RAM Corsair CMZ16GX3M2A1866C9 Vengeance
PSU Corsair PSU AX1200
And the workers will just have less ram and a worse CPU as I dont beleive they need it. (currently 1 worker)
To communicate with less latency we are opting towards using infiniband.
Any comments? There is proberly alot wrong with this
