20+ core club

[freaksavior]

well if we count GPU's

then

i7 - 4
Q8xxx - 4
T8300 - 2
T8100 - 2
P8400 - 2
E7400 -2
p4 630 -1
GTX260 - 1
8800gt - 1
8600gt - 1
(if on board vido counts then 22 cores)
(If my sound card counts then 24)
Thats 20

 

[Steevo]

I have about 35 total (at work) I have to take care of, plus mine at home, and about 40 customers PC's. Do RISC systems count? If so I have a few more.

All in I have spent in excess of 20-000 by now (hardware and running costs).
I would rather do this than contribute directly (financially) to charities as I know exactly what is going where.

True, crunching is a gamble that we all hope will pay off in the future.
But it is also something I enjoy.

Direct contributions to charity are a bit suspect to me......so much goes on admin costs and who's to say where the rest winds up.

At least this way, personal greed/corruption isn't a factor.

I pay monthly amounts by direct debit.....about £150 per month currently but with the extra hardware online will have to bump it to £200.

But then a fair bit of that usage is down to 2 teenagers in the house

As an aside..........one thing that would help us crunchers would be FREE/discounted Windows licences.
I emailed Microsoft years ago in this regard but got no reply.

Ubuntu runs well, easy to install and set up.....ran it for years

only have 18 cores now

 

[3volvedcombat]

Ill add up what i have and what is not runing.

2x Hd 4870s
2x 9600gsos
1x GTX 260
1x 9500gt
1x 8400gs
4400 2 cores
4200 2 cores
5800BE 2 cores
6000 2 cores
e5200 2 cores
3800+ venice 1 core
Pent 4 LGA 775 530 1 logical 1 real core

Now ive only got up to 4 cores in my main machine
and 2-3 cores on the second machine but i only use my e5200 rig of course. But yep ive rolled into alot of stuff 3 of those AMD athlon X2's were a waste of money, and there in different rigs around my town now. LOL!

Hey thats 20 cores yayayayay!!!!!

 

[p_o_s_pc]

do GPUs count?
If so i have
4 in GPUs
17 in CPUs (will be more soon)

 

[3volvedcombat]

do GPUs count?

yes

 

[p_o_s_pc]

yes

here are mine then
GPUs
8800GT
8800GTS
3870
7900GS

CPUS
X4 9500(4 cores)
5kBE(2 cores)
4200+(2cores)
P4 661(1 real 1 logical but only counting as 1)
P4 6xx(1 real 1 logical only counting as 1)
P4 something(1core)
sempron 2500(1core)
mobile X2(2cores)
celly D(1core)
pentium M(1core)

I think that is all of them but i feel like i am missing something..

I forgot the GPUs i have sitting in my junk box..(older AGP cards)

 

[Black Panther]

Well, just counting processors:

At home I got

laptop's Q9450 = 4
my 8400 = 2
kid's 1800+ = 1
a 'spare' rig with a 1900+ = 1
my little Pentium 2 mendocino... = 1

At my work (they're mine too)

Q9400 = 4
E7500 = 2
E6320 = 2
E4300 = 2

Uhh, that makes 19 cores.
Counting GPU's as well, laptop's got 2, then there's the 8800GT on my rig and FX5500 on daughter's, an MX440 on the 1900+ and an Nvidia Vanta 16MB on the Mendocino if that counts as a core!
That makes 6 active GPU's.

Add the GPU cores to the CPU cores that's 25 in total.

(Oh I didn't count inactive stuff on the shelves, like the 5000 BE which's another 2 cores, a 9800 Pro - 1 core.... and well there's too much junk really which I should be getting rid of...)

 

[imperialreign]

I had figured were were considering a "core" to be a "processing unit" - in which case, I'd say GPUs count . . .

as well as APUs (Audio Processing Unit)

 

[vaiopup]

Not to be a pedant but I would say that if the gpu is incapable of crunching or Folding it doesn't qualify!!!

Sorry no IGP's or TNT2 64's.

@mike........yes I have dabbled with Ubuntu/Kubuntu and Fedora.

i dont see the processor in the pic.

 

[3dsage]

Well if you count all the cpus and gpus ive owned this year. I would have had 39 Cores
Phenom 9950=4
Phenom 9950=4
e6300=2
e7200=2
e7500=2
x2 5000=2
x2 5400=2
x2 5200=2
x2 4400=2
Xeon 3220=4
e1200=2
P4 630=1
PII720=4

8800gt=1
8800gts g80=1
2x2900xt=2
260gtx=1
8400gs=1
9600gso=1

Probably more, but thats all i could remember.

 

[freaksavior]

i dont see the processor in the pic.

haha i was demoing something at work and i posted that to show the customer. Hahaha i though i deleted it.

 

[Yukikaze]

Hmm.....I have:

Intel Core i7 975
Intel Core 2 Quad Q9650

Phenom II X3 720BE
Intel Core 2 Duo T7500 - Current laptop.
Intel Core Duo T2500 - Work laptop.
Via C7-D - SFF PC for my mom.

Total cores: 20

There's a Q9400S on the way, too, and two oldie rigs (PIII-M 1Ghz and Tualatin 1.4Ghz @ 1.6Ghz) I didn't count there.

 

[mastrdrver]

Do they have to be running or just laying around?

[HookeyStreet]

nope...........4 cores is 4 cores
Just ordered my first Win 7 licence..............no way I am ordering 7 of them.

lol, no need, just use the same key on all of your systems
