Oh man... yesterday two big boxes came to the IT department I work in. I came in this morning and started poking around and found that these boxes contain 2 HP ProLiant DL585 servers. Each one of these servers has a quad-array (x4) of 64-bit dual-core AMD Opterons running at 2.6GHz!!!
!@#$%*!@$# :eek: :D :toast:
They will also take up to 128GB of DDR SDRAM :DDROOOOOOOOOOOOL:

I can't wait to start playing with these babies. My admin never told me they were coming, so this is a wonderful suprise, like Christmas came early!!! :laugh:

I wonder how games would run if you threw in a nice graphic card?!
But I will never find out because at $35,000 a piece I won't be getting one :twitch: :cry:

Lol, the processor power alone could run most games I bet. You probably wouldn't even need a nice GPU.

Xeons won't take nearly that much with the same amount of performance anyways.

128gb pc2700 > 32gb ddr400 :D
