Originally by: SpaceSquirrels .. Anyone know what the power bill on the top one would run a month?
If I read it right the top ones use some one digit MW numbers.. lets say 5MW. In germany the last bill I remember was something of 20cents/kWh.. So you're looking at 1,000 EUR per hour?! No wonder datacenters of Google, Yahoo and MSN I saw a picture of sat right next to a Powerplant in the US 
Anyways.. would be nice to have some DEV with knowledge of the TQ cluster step in here and leave a note where he see's the Server in regards to the Top500 and how much Cores it really has.. might even be able to tell us the exact name of the blades and their stats as I wasn't able to find 'Intel Xenon 3,3GHz Wolfdale Blade' anywhere on the net, except Eve-related sites.. And what I found on Intels sites about those blades was more the mediacore line and not the high end stuff ?!

Now is that power for just the cores/ram? Not the total power usage of each node/whatever you want to call it? Now then figure in the cooling cost of the buildings. Speaking of which how does one cool such an amount said specific areas? I'd guess it'd be easier to just refrige the building/ambient temp. I've heard of attaching uber radiators to servers then running pipes through with water etc, but not sure who really does that..... seeing as how if something sprang a leak.... |

In the winter time we would leave the door to our server room open to help heat the office :p
But if u look at some serious data centers like the one google just built, its all about saving costs. Which is why it was built in an refurbished hydroelectric dam to provide the juice and cooling. |

id imagine google gets a volume discount compared to what is on a home power bill.
that said i think the first real station will be...
Sol 3 Moon 1 Google Research Station...

From what I remember, the impressiveness of the Tranquility server is not its raw computing power, but more in the number on concurrent users on a single server.

CCP; When you absolutely positively got to have the perfect circle!
Perhaps if everyone was wiling to take a day off so they could run the tests, CCP could probably freeze the state of Eve for the duration .... .. .. hahahaha, as if thats going to happen!!  |

Originally by: Armoured C on a more awesome note have you seen number one
in the 500
Holding onto the No. 1 spot with 1.105 petaflop/s (quadrillions of floating point operations per second) is the Roadrunner system at DOEÆs Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) which was built by IBM and in June 2008 became the first system ever to break the petaflop/s Linpack barrier. It still is one of the most energy efficient systems on the TOP500.
OMG do want :)
