BEOWULF Device?
ive got 15-20 d510 mobos, not sure what i can haywire into them as far as V-card goes.
who has an interest in such a project?
i mean crude beowulf assembly for mining.
reply this thread, if so.
eventually this thread will get taken over by people who know way more than i, but its a good place to start.. i guess

i mean crude beowulf assembly for mining. CPU mining for all of those combined might result in maybe a few tens of Mhash/s at best. A $1,000 ASIC shipping "real soon now" can mine at 2,000 times that. A $100 GPU even can mine at ten times that. |

The problem isn't even the capital costs, it the operation cost of running all those servers. Not worth it IMO.

Beowulf cluster for converting media files, yes. Beofwulf for btc mining, no way in hell.

Definitely not worth it IMHO, it would be a waste of power, it wouldn't be worth the time either.
