Fastra II has 13 NVIDIA chipsets

Just how fast is your computer’s graphical performance? If you think you’re at the very pinnacle, think again. Folks at the University of Antwerp recently unveiled what they think is one of the fastest computers ever to be fitted into a regular tower chassis. Dubbed the Fastra II, you get a regular Intel 2.66GHz Core i7 processor, but what makes it different is the number of video cards within. You will find half a dozen dual-GPU GeForce GTX 295 cards working alongside a single GeForce GTX 275, theoretically allowing it to handle up to 12 teraflops of general work and 3D graphics without breaking a sweat. Apart from the sheer graphical computing power, everything else seems pretty ordinary from its 1,500W power supply, three 450W power supplirs, a 1TB hard drive, 12GB RAM and an ASUS P6T7 WS motherboard. The price for this beast? 6,000 Euros.
