Greetings
Just thinking ahead.
I have a few rigs here that are no longer efficient on an output/running costs basis.
If I had the money available (which I don't at present)~what would be the most cost-effective single box cruncher???
Should I be looking at the latest i7's or whatever they're called or would I be better going dual-quad?
Electricity costs here in the U.K are pretty evil so I need to find a way to max output with minimum boxen.
Most "peripheral" parts I could recycle from old rigs so I would need:
Board.
Cpu(s).
Ram.
Solid psu.
You avid system builders fire away with your suggestions.
Not interested in FPS and all that la-di-da.
All that matters is crunching output.
Please fire away with your suggestions.
