Dear FSL Users and Experts,
We are thinking to order following configuration for CUDA implementation
and I have some questions related to it.
First Processor
-Xeon E5-2630V4 2.2Ghz 20MB Turbo Boost (S26361-F5001-E220)
Second Processor
-2ND XEON E5-2630V4 (S26361-F5002-E230)
RAM
-16 x 16 GB = 256GB RAM
HDD SATA III
-2TB x 2 = 4TB
First Graphics Card
-NVIDIA QUADRO M5000 8GB ( S26361-F2222-E593 )
Second Graphics Card
-NVIDIA QUADRO M5000 8GB (S26361-F2222-E990)
1) Do you think above mentioned CPUs and GPUs would be able to run CUDA
and BEDPOSTX ? Is it appropriate or should we look for some other
configuration? Please suggest a configuration if you disagree with our
configuration.
2) Do you think it is better to have 2 CPUs for and 2 GPUs for quickers
image pre-processing? or there is as such no difference in the results when
compared to ony one CPU and one GPU
3) Which CentoOS version and CUDA version would you suggest to install on
the above configuration?
4) Can we run CUDA implementation on UbuntuOS?
I really appreciate your time and efforts for making our lab more faster
and more powerful.
Many Thanks
Best, Wu
