Hello Folks!

My name is Mattias Forsberg i live in Sweden and i am an computer technician.

I have built computers basically all my life, but i have never ever built a couple of calculation computers before. My idéa is to build two computers set for do different kind of calculations based on statistics from various websites and databases and i am very curious about how it would work and how fast it will be to do such calculations with a cluster of two computers helping each other out with the same calculation and how fast it will be to do multiple calculations a regular computer would struggle with for months.

So this project is a quite costly one due to the hardware needed to build a couple of computers to handle that kind of calculations, so i am asking you guys for a donation for science.

Each calculation computer will be equipped with two Quadro P5000 GPU and a state of the art closed-current water cooling for good cooling-performance to eliminate overheating. That's why the high costs of these computers when they are ready to do some heavy-duty calculations.

To build these calculation machines i need roughly calculated based on day-to-day prices on parts:


Prices for all components 15375 USD.
Shipping: 450 USD.
Swedish Import Tax (25% based on price + shipping): 3957 USD.

Grand total: Just about $19782 for both machines in parts with shipping & tax.
So i am asking for total of 20000 USD for them and unexpected charges added upon arrival.

This project will not be possible without your help due to that i have no funds on my own to use for this project, so i hope you guys will help me out here for science!

I don't hope for too much, but i still need to hope for the best so i can get going with this science-project.

Thanks in advance!
