Got a new piece of gear!
Recently I have been realizing that my computer is just too slow for what I use it for. I mainly use it for generating 3d CAD computer models using Autodesk Inventor. I also use it to run complex calculations with too many variables to do by hand.
Now my computer isn't slow by any means... I've got 2 Intel Xeon Westmere hex core processors (6 processing cores + 6 virtual cores per processor) this means I have 24 processing cores running at 3.06 GHz (turbo boost up to 3.46 GHz * Intel Xeon EX567 processors) along with 48 GB's of ram. (24 GB per processor) I have a NVIDIA Quadro 5000 graphics card.
Even still there are times when it takes hours to finish a computation or render a computer model with 10,000-30,000 parts. This means that I can't get my work done fast enough. So enter the NVIDIA Tesla S2050 a rack mountable supercomputing unit. This has 1,792 parellel processing cores and 12GB of video RAM. This yields 2.6 Teraflops (2.6 trillion operations per second). Hopefully this will speed things up lol.
Here she is in all of her glory:
