What are the technological reasons whereby GPUs are cheaper than CPUs?

My company has a setup of two GTX 295, so a total of 4 GPUs in a server, and we have several servers.
We GPU 1 specifically was slow, in comparison to GPU 0, 2 and 3 so I wrote a little speed test to help find the cause of the problem.
//#include <stdio.h>
//#include <stdlib.h>
//#include…

Are there currently any programs available for monitoring/measuring GPU temperature? Something preferably free, and for either Windows XP and Windows 7.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
let's say that I am a physicist and that I am the master of the universe when it comes to port salready existing oftware to GPU's with 100x or more speedups. Let's say that I find that some other scientist, which does not know how to program GPU, publishes the Open Source code in his/her website…

The move to integrated CPU and GPU continues as Intel brings the technology down to the low-end netbook segment.

Hi,
My new server has 2 x X5570 CPUs.
Now here is the output of grep -i hz /proc/cpuinfo

Hello!
I'm running FreeBSD 7.2 under VMware ESXi 3.5. Host has 2 physical CPUs and the BSD box is currently the only running VM. Only one virtual CPU is assigned to the VM.
When measuring CPU time of a specific program, I get very different results from time to time. Processor usage is reported…

According to http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/docs/mibs/ucdavis.html#scalar_notcurrent ssCpuUser, ssCpuSystem, ssCpuIdle, etc are deprecated in favor of the raw variants (ssCpuRawUser, etc).
The former values (which don't cover things like nice, wait, kernel, interrupt, etc) returned a percentage…

I've noticed that there are sometimes (large) differences between the reported total CPU usage and a summation of the per-process CPU utilization given by apps like top and wmtop.
As an example: I recently ran a git filter-branch --index-filter on a fairly large repo, with the index-filter command…

I have a Ubuntu 12.04 server which sometimes dies completely - no SSH, no ping, nothing until it is physically rebooted.
After the reboot, I see in syslog that the oom-killer killed, well, pretty much everything.
There's a lot of detailed memory usage information in them. How do I read these logs…
