Taking a break from MemoryTraceGenerator.cpp to mention:
I'm replacing the motherboard and CPU in my dad's home desktop with an Athlon 64 x2 Kuma at 2.7 GHz and an $80 EVGA motherboard with a GeForce 8200 integrated video chipset. The total here is roughly $200 if you also purchase several GB of DDR2 RAM. This wouldn't be a terrible CUDA development platform, particularly if someone loaned you a higher-end GPU. Even without, its integrated GPU is still capable of accelerating typical applications such as video decoding.
I only mention this because what one might consider today's low-end desktop is astonishingly powerful.
It's also my first time touching AMD.
