1) Message boards : The Lounge : Where to go from here? (Message 84577) Posted 29 Jan 2018 by paulhabbott Post: Hey everyone, small contributor to a few BOINC projects (SETI and Rosetta), but first time on the message boards. Just wanted to know if anyone could steer me in a direction to building BOINC-optimized rigs. I am a Desktop Technician at a University and we think it would be neat to build something to harness the power of roughly 40 GPU's we have sitting around. We upgraded an AutoCAD computer lab, but the GPU's they came with weren't great so we upgraded them all. Now we have a surplus of normal consumer grade (but brand new) GPU's. We don't have a crazy budget, but if we could build a 5 GPU rig to test it out and scale up from there would be great. Maybe later I could convince them to buy us that new ASUS B250 Mining MOBO for 19-GPU power. haha Thanks for any suggestions!
