Yeah, Newegg has really spoiled us to the point that I hate shopping elsewhere. If you want a successful business model, just look at the Egg.

ZipZoomFly is a perfectly fine place to buy parts, I bought 2 PNY 9600GSOs from them for $40 each back in June, cards arrived 3 days after order was placed

Actually, you should look at ewiz too. That's where I buy a majority of my parts now, since I get taxed with Newegg. Fast shipping in general, and their RMA process is pretty decent.

+1 to ewiz. Have some killer deals sometimes and always have taken care of customer (at least in my roommates and I experience).

woohooo! i got the p4 Xeon server crunching!

xeon prestona 2.4Ghz single core+ HT

1GB SD-ECC

dual socket (only 1 proc

) dell server board

3 32GB scsi drives in raid 0

creative banshee 16mb card

folding away!! its hit or miss though the wireless adpater totally sucks but she will fold 24/7 and hopefully i can get a more stable connection eventually

this dynex G adapter blows hard.

im excited i tried folding on my i7 but omg the heat was scaring me that and with the cards and the proc going at it she got unstable incredably easy. but im super excited now it took me weeks to get the WCG server running but i finally did it! drivers were a nightmare apparently no OS in existence likes the megaraid 500 card and i have alot of OS's but its doing it! and hopefully if the ocnnection doesnt drop out it will even upload WU!

And D-Smith its good to know my old server is going to a good cause.

p_o_s_pc · Oct 9, 2009

ion your going to overtake me for sure now.Because i am using a ATI card for folding that doesn't do shit when the CPU is loaded at 100% so i am just using 1 core

Chicken Patty · Oct 9, 2009

sorry guys, but my dual core is down from crunching for just a bit. I need to used the area to fix a computer I have here. once it's done, it'll be back up and running :toast:

DaMulta · Oct 9, 2009

So what does everyone think about the new 100 dollar stock quad?

Not to shabby I think.

I was down 2 rigs for the majority of the day, so my numbers are down. Good news is, my i7 860 has now joined the family, and should start spitting out points in a day or two.

I got robbed of pie twice today. The update before last Duxx had me by 3 points, and now Paulieg has me by just a few points also. This is BS, share with me guys

Stock clocks are killing my output.

How you like the 860 Paul?

Can't say yet, since I'm waiting on the 1156 mount for my Megahalems. The stock cooler is so lame that I'm only running stock right now. I did play around with the chip just a bit. I was able to run BOINC for a few minutes at 3.9ghz 1.21v. Had to stop due to heat. I'm guessing this chip will fly once I get the mega on top of her.

you wouldn't happen to have a spare Mega right? I'd be interested in that, if not I'm purchasing one for my i7 my next paycheck. on stock cooler right now and i'm running stock clocks too! I won't be going water for a bit again, till I figure out if I keep it in a case or not. Plus, if results are good with the mega, I'll keep it on air

No extras

I have 2 right now. I can tell you that it beats the TRUE by a couple of degrees, and has beefier mounting hardware. In some ways I miss water, but the Mega is the closest thing to water you can get, and there is no maintenance involved. If you grab one, get it from Gary at Sidewinders. He's got it for the best price, and he ships fast.

What temps were you getting or are you getting with it and what settings?

Sidewinders was the first place I looked, but PPCS has it cheaper and they are wayyy closer to me than Gary meaning shipping is faster and cheaper.

On my 920 I was getting load temps in the low 60's at 3.9ghz. I am talking about serious load though, running BOINC at 100% during a LinX 20 cycle run.
