Building your first GPU-enabled parallel computer – minimum system requirements

In the previous section, we discussed the main components of the required configuration in brief. Since this configuration is primarily focused on GPU computing, it calls for a minimum set of requirements, in addition to your GPU. Thorough research on these is very essential, regardless of opting for a branded pre-assembled desktop or an assembled version you built yourself.

Scope of hardware scalability

Minimum system requirements set the scope of your computing needs to a bare minimum. That means with such a configuration at minimum expenditure, you should at least be able to carry out specific types of operation you intend to do on that...
