Nvidia 6600GT gfx card. Started out with an Nvidia 5900XT. It |
| 24 |
lost one cpu - memory controller went bad last year. Upgraded both |
| 25 |
cpus and now have powernowd running doing dynamic frequency control. |

All have run Gentoo, though the Penguin Computing server started out with SLES 8, |
| 31 |
that basically sucked. SLES 9 and SLES 10 are better, but it's a critical lab server and |
| 32 |
I won't run software we test on something critical like that. |
