And, at least behind the closed doors, both AMD and Nvidia GPUs have been shown booting Linux on their own, without requiring a CPU. umm. wat

if i count right it has 6 pcie and 1 pci
you count wrong. PCI Express 3.0 x16 - 2 PCI Express 2.0 x16 - 1 x PCIe 2.0 x16 slot - PCI_E7 supports up to PCIe 2.0 x4 speed PCI Express x1 - 4

It probably is. I was trying to remember from some picture I saw in a different thread.

Nice I think they should have integrated a controller in the rig so it would displau 25xxx mhash instead of 14 @ 1400mhash

But it's a gamble.. like buying all computer parts. Just because it's 'ES' doesn't mean it's the god of all chips.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but why would someone pay more for an Engineering Sample?

Overvolting yes.. I doubt water cooling though.. If 1100 is achievable on stock settings..
You would want it watercooled though.. High temps = more leakage = more power drawn. although why watercool a 7950 when you can w/c a 7970 (or 2)

I haven't used this chip you're talking about. Considering though a GPU like 5750 hashes for about 170MH/s and the APU of AMD A8-3850 (which is 6550) does a 65MH/s, I seriously doubt this Intel chip can go up to 100MH/s. Waiting for XX55XX to post real life results from his new laptop I have a desktop with a 3770k as I said before. Isn't it not possible at the moment to run an OpenCL miner with the HD4000 gfx? Nothing comes up in guiminer. You will likely need to install Intel's OpenCL package. Also, GUIMiner -only- looks for AMD APP (SDK 2.4 or higher) before "enabling" the rest of the program. Once you have 2.4, 2.5, or 2.6 installed, GUIMiner will run normally. You will then have to configure your miner (GUIMiner is not a miner. It is a frontend. A GUI. Nothing more.) to use the Intel OpenCL platform instead, and hope it recognizes the HD4000 graphics. I think you can use GPU Caps Viewer to analyze each OpenCL platform and compatible devices for each platform if GUIMiner is acting weird, to make sure the HD4000 is an acceptable device for Intel OpenCL. save the trouble and try cgminer :p

Yeah, that's why their Tesla stuff shows up in pretty much all of the new supercomputer builds these days, right? their high end tesla's kick some major ass.

Balance changes every hour: 1:00 2:00 etc.. Actually no, balance update time is not tied to round numbers and in some cases can be surprising. Hm, I was running an applet and it always updated on the hour for me. What are these cases? If you're referring to no blocks found during the hour, then no, the balance stays the same.

Is something up ? Im seeing my usual hash rate.. New blocks being found and listed on the stats page... Yet my payout has remained the same for the last 5 hours...? Everything is fine. If you are still worrying, PM me your login name to check. Ummm I think it was a false alarm.. I somehow saw new blocks found, but not credit at that time.. But I noticed there were a few long blocks.. Im guessing the timing is not exact on reward versus blocks found due to the 1 hour latencey of blocks found... Thanks though... Balance changes every hour: 1:00 2:00 etc.. Blocks appear 1 hour after they're found.

You missed the fun time last summer

Yep, that's why I said different thermal dynamics, not better thermal dyanmics. But in the case of a server where these will be used in, it is likely that the case fans will take care of excess dissipated heat with no problems. It also appears to have a plastic coating on the metal shell, unless that is just paint.
Beat you

gotchya. didn't think of that. Used to counting 'spaces' for card :p Technically you'd want a material that conducts zero heat so it is properly vented out of the case and not leaked into it. Plastic isn't entirely appropriate, but its cheap. Metal isn't appropriate.
Correct, but the solutions these will be used for have large amounts of air flowing over the cards. IE server racks. So while this neglects to be used in a regular computer, a server rack filled with these will do just fine.

errr.. don't they mean 2 pcie slots? LOL
|
|

so that's what it would look like if Intel made a GPU F'n sexy! Yeah I love the industrial metal look without all the plastic. Helps heat dissipation too This is not crappy AMD card with plastic cover You do realize thats an air channel, right? Hot air channel will heat up top metal cover by convection ( hot air rises ) and conduction and the metal will get hot up there. Even the plastic on my AMD cards is quite hot to the touch and not normal room temp. even if it does not conduct heat as well as metal Ur an idiot. So.. you can remove heat from metal to air... but you can't impose heat by air to metal.. hmm yes, makes sense!

nice spreadsheet they should sell these at auction, one at a time, and take the profits and just hold onto them as a reserve so their company gets more money in their pocket and people have a chance at getting each unit, and instead of giving someone a unit that will make them their investment back in a few days and then raping the network forever, this way they bid for it and might end up paying $150,000 instead of $40,000 to get it. awesome idea. people will pay the premium to have it early. Like releasing 2-3 a week or something. eventually the price will trickle down to that break even point, and BFL will make more money than they planned on. Why sell 5 for 30k when you can sell 1 for 150k while it's in high demand?
