    Anyone know of a method of extending out additional GPUs to crunch applications - maybe by packing them into external enclosures, or some kind of PCIe expansion chassis? Half a dozen or a dozen in an enclosure box for example.

    Utility is crunching descrete applications via GPU via the Home User such as science applications or Projects like BOINC. Solutions involving mega racks and complex additional hardware would not be suitable.

    FYI, i'm not 100% sure but i think ATi has there own version of it. Just that they don't sell a running system like the Tesla.
