I was bored one day so I decided to build a supercomputer. I sourced 20 or so computers from around town and build a linux based cluster. Each computer has 4+ gb of RAM and the processors are 2.4ghz intel based ones. What can I do with them? Can I host a game server? Or is there a service where I can earn some money by selling server time? I am very new to servers and networking stuff, I just mainly followed instructions off the internet. Any suggestions?

Build: Fx-8120@4.1ghz,  Gtx770@1.0ghz,  16gb Patriot memory,  Cheap case from thermaltake
