Build Your Rig! (XBlade)

[rahulmsapra]

Hi,
I want to build a system which can be used as a server for accessing software/applications for graphics and designing and even 3D applications too via 2 or more thin clients simultaneously. Also I want this system be used as a render farm too so other 3d artist can upload files and get them rendered quickly. I also want to know what kind of hardware and OS and other applications should be used to build this rig. In case if 2 servers can be created (1 CPU server and 1 GPU server)how can they be linked to a common server which can decide to assign tasks on the servers depending upon load.

Please reply back and if possible email me.

Thanks & Regards,

AWESOME site buddy

You guys should add the latest chipsets like z77 in the motherboard section , it is missing

Is this still being used / updated ?

 

[nbaztec]

No. Kindly avoid referring to the prices there.

 

[aaruni]

Nice site dude.

But you are not updating it anymore? I just registered..

 

[nbaztec]

Yeah, sorry about that. Lost out on volunteers long time back. As it turns out, maintaining a list of latest prices is a daunting task.

 

[aaruni]

forget about maintaining accurate price list (atleast I don't care about that).

All i want is some place which will give you all the options of components, so that only have to visit one place, instead of comparing across a wide range of websites.

The price list can specify range, if not the accurate prices. Anyway, I am not going to buy a whole rig anywhere.

 

[nbaztec]

Even that requires quite an effort with new h/w releasing every fortnight. Nothing much I can do as of now.

 

[aaruni]

How many volunteers are there, as of now?

And what are the pre-requisites for volunteering? I am interested, but I am afraid, that I am a bit of a n00b..

 

[nbaztec]

No criteria, just some members would occasionally help me with maintaining the list of products (since I fail to keep myself updated with the current h/w).

 

[aaruni]

Would a member, with a digit mag and an internet connection do?

If yes, then enroll me.

 

[nbaztec]

If you have a item/price/spec list of any items to update just send me over. Nothing to do with the mag

 

[aaruni]

mag provides the list every month in killer rigs and spend smart

awesome work u ppl.......
1 thing i was wondering....if we select a specific motherboard....and then move on to gpu and ram....do they get listed according to compatibility or that too we have to figure out?

 

[amibisu]
