Lincoln: thanks for interest, we have run the system in a number of
different configurations. The common theme is the X58 chipset (it does work
with others, but performance is not good)
The configurations we have used for Motherboards with 16x are Tyan 7025
(dual Xeon dual X58 chipset) as well as
Hi Mikael,
V. interesting. What is your disk configuration, motherboard, and processor
selection?

Hi Marcus,
Thank you for describing successes over the long term using this series. I note
that the experience and words were not my own but those of a colleague
experienced in instrumentation. That said, the purpose of my note was to
highlight the utility and possible relevance of the produc

Regarding spectrometer built to interface directly to PCI express
We actually built such a thing using an off the shelf board an x86 box, an
NVIDIA GPU and some high speed disks. The problem as David mentioned is the
cost of the FPGA, since XILINX only support small widths in their V6 series,

On further investigation, I see that the big problem with trying to build a
board with ADC to PCIe x16 is the lack of a suitable FPGA to do the PCI end. The
lowest-cost FPGA from Xilinx that will handle x8 PCIe costs $3000.
Methinks that the FPGA makers don't want us building boards that don't
