Ezekiel 25:17. The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you. | |

^^ couple of years? try 6 months..
but that doesn't matter, it can still process a trillion calculations per second.. so does that matter?

It seems like every other country is more efficient at doing things then North America??? This thing costs half as much as the American one? WTF.
I mean, come on people.

I wonder why they went AMD though.. I thought these days, Intel technology is far superior.

I doubt Windows is in anyway optimized for this kind of rig.
Waste of such massive hardware.

Watt (Power = Energy/time)
Are they trying to say it averages 700 kW power consumption over an hour?
It just bothers me... like saying a car has 300 HP per hour.
