hardnrg Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 Roadrunner's hybrid format sips power (3.9 megawatts)  sip sip  Interesting how it uses dual core Opterons and Cell engines... maybe this will pave the way for harnessing the power of hybrid CPU/stream processing in workstations  Would be cool to be able to utilise GPU stream processors in "general" SMP applications Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammin Posted June 10, 2008 Posted June 10, 2008 Yeah, I'm not sure how by any standard you could consider 3.9 megawatts as 'sipping' power. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a feeling on the next bill I will be shutting off a couple more rigs or moving them. I already put 2-Quads at the office plus there is a Pent. D a C2D and x2 there running 24/7. I saw this on the home page after I posted it... http://www.overclockersclub.com/news/22516/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
