We're planning to make our first hardware purchases next week,
and after a lot of benchmarking with our code, it looks like a
16-node (dual-processor x 8)/myrinet system is the way for us
to go. We've been quoted an attractive-looking price for systems
that include (among other things):
Intel Lancewood Motherboard
PIII-700 x 2
256 RAm ECC PC100
Embedded U2 SCSI, fast ethernet, graphics
Does anyone have experience with these or advice regarding pro's,
con's, or better alternatives within this design paradigm?
Thanks,
