its traditionally been about 10X the cost, 10X the performance, similar reliability, and 2 to 3 times the size of fastest "standard" computer using similar technology at same time.

However the Beowolf supercomputer architecture changed all that, some Beowolfs have been practically free, while having over 10X the performance, much greater reliability and can be expanded to whatever space is available at any time additional performance is needed. Many modern gaming units are micro-Beowolf supercomputers.
