Well, don't look at it as a new addiction, then.

Look at it as a new branch of your old addiction... :rofl:

We admitted we were powerless over our addiction , and that our crunching had became unmanageable

Haha, thanks for the prewarning. Although, i only have one good buddy that knows alot about computers, rest are well, compute-illiterate if that makes sense. No sense of Not letting him talk to me as if he was a daytime gf :rofl:

Welcome Kristall-99
many thanks for helping.
In 6 months you'll know as much as most here so don't let that bother you.
But, a warning to you.
There are a few here that you need to watch out for.
1)Sigfever: Our resident shrink but even he loses it at times
2) Phelan: Just looney-tunes and 28 cents short of a dime..:ROTF:
3)Fart_Plume..Do I need to say more about a guy with that nicname?
Just make sure your upwind of him if you ever meet or your clothing might melt before your eyes.
I heard the EPA had his house on the Superfund list as a toxic dump site to be cleaned until they found out the cause and they just mailed him a cork for his butt..:rofl:
Last but not least: There is a rumor, and only a rumor mind you, of some guy that likes to call people and talk till their cell phones die.
Just a nasty rumor and don't pay any attention to it or those that spread these abominable rumors..:shakes:

Short timers, or very slow machines... the quad my buddy just put up, I noticed.. had completed more work in 5 days than 75% of the hosts in wcg.

He got a giggle out of that... as he had been running an 7 year old athlon 1200 for nearly 2 years.

slow machines i have indeed, a64 4000+ sempron 3300+ and an occasional dual core's here and there from laptop and buddy of mine, other than that i don't have any outstanding machines, as of yet at least:p:

A few months, I think.

Honestly, I wouldn't bother with an nVidia chipset unless you REALLY want SLI. Any decent P35 board will clock better, be just as stable (if not more so), have less issues (at least compared to 680 and 780i), and easily cost half the price :p:

But if you must have SLI, the 790i looks like it might be your best bet (providing you can afford the cash for DDR3 :p:)

DDR3 has latency issues from what i hear -_-
i just like the nvidia stuff because i know it all works together, with me being a nooby and all

karl_eller
03-17-2008, 03:33 AM
nVidia stuff all works together? Pfft, I had so many more issues with my Q6600 + 680i + 8800GTX than I did with my Q6600 + P5K (X38) + 8800GTX. nVidia chipsets FTL :p:

Gamekiller
03-17-2008, 03:40 AM
i was gonna build a q6600+780i+wait a few months for the better cards+and some ddr2 at 1200mhz (even though i hear it won't run even close to that without fsb adjustment or something)
