But can it run crysis?

Needs to have the GPUs listed too. I mean it is a gaming machine so it'll need some graphics horsepower outside of the onboard on any of the Xeons that do have onboard.

Scientific research or not, who actually needs 22,000 Xeon CPUs. I'm confused.

multiple hundreds of research facilities at the same time

Oh I see, so they will all be able to access a part of the server at once via cloud?

if it's a part of project "OPEN CANADA" it might be even better - any Canadian should be able to access it, in that case I might consider moving to Canada

I really really really hope that Linus pull out one of those cables when he was pointing his finger at them. 

 

Just a oopsie opps Linus. Come on.... It's not like you haven't done it before...

If it is not broken, let's fix till it is.

I really loved this one, great job LTT!

 

I suppose it's obvious really, but it still interests me that these super-computers are comprised of processors not too distantly related to what we're all using, just in unbelievable numbers.

Wow that was impressive!  

Datacenter wise, the cooling solution is interesting :D   might be experiencing in this "spray cold water on hot fins" thing x)

 

It would be awesome if you could do a tour of more "conventional" datacenter too (colocation ones). There are a lot in Canada. I don't know for other regions, but just in quebec we have a dozen of them. Be it Funio, netelligent, ibm bluemix, cologix, ... you cloud have a lot of fun in these too, with more complicated networking as well ;)

 

Keep up the good work!   Your videos are still as awesome as the old days :D

I just watched the video and it was awesome, the "computer" part is, for me, kind of whatever but the whole cooling part and expandability was brilliant. Looking forward to the quantum computer unboxing releasing on youtube.

Interesting video... But regardless, not an unboxing. 

Can Anybody Link A Virtual Machine while I go download some RAM?

Linus, this is what your whole room watercooling should have been like.
