Hi Octaners,

I would like to buy some new rig with 8 titans like
http://www.fluidyna.com/content/fluidyn ... ltiplied-8

I´m not sure if it will workfine. That machine is certified to Tesla.
Do you have some experience?

Is it better to buy two machines with 4 and 4 titans?

Any other thoughts?

Thanks a lot
All the best Jan

I'm looking to setup a system with potentially 8 or more Titans as well.

What would be the ideal setup for the base systems and possible extensions?

I've read about Nestor's Turbobox? Is this generally the best method or are there other good/ reliable ways to extend? Does anyone know how Otoy have setup their cloud farms?

When you setup the Turbobox Pro it has 6 slots so with a decent MB you'd be able to connect 3 Titans one slot free for the Turbobox Connection + 6 in the Turbobox, so max 9 Titans? Is this correct or would I be running into issues?

Thanks in advance
