I don't anticipate catching you again unless multiple smp rigs cut power consumption to the point I can stay out of 3rd and 4th tier home rates. :(Quote:

Welcome back!
When you heat with electric (like I do) it only makes sense to run the computers instead of the heater :D My thermostat is turned off all winter in the computer room. When I was in college I actually had to keep the window cracked open otherwise it would get too hot :lol2:
Just installed smp jeeze that was easy somethings you just never forgot 3rd 9800gx2 is going to have to wait till tomorrow no more resistors :(

For those of you who run WCG on your CPU, the default setting for it is to pause on battery power.
Now I hope you will all let me be off topic for one post.
I read this week about a folding or crunching member who had ddr modules to sell,1GB if my memory is correct.
I can't access the classifieds but still I'd buy pretty much any kind of crap that ages from p3 and up. I pay for shipping. PM me?
Do you remember cash for gold? I offer you CASH FOR HARDWARE!
Do you feel like i'm hijacking the thread? Well.. I plan to put my oldie duron and pentium 3 and 4 from school auctions to work. I just have to call my 13yo neighbor to help me build new clean towers with all the old hardware.
Off topic is the norm :D
Sent you a PM.
Deal!
Thank you Sparky:D
Now, anybody has 1gb ddr2 sticks to sell?
I need them to power up a pentium D which will be folding whenever it's on (A)
2gb sticks would be even nicer but I'm not sure I can afford them :P
Sparky maybe?
Actually I have a couple of sticks of someQuote:

That I would be willing to send you for the cost of shipping. Even tough i am not a member of this team I contribute heavily to folding and am willing to help out any folder that needs a hand getting a couple more PPD out there.

FF, regardless of your team affiliation, glad you're around here :)
I personally just passed 900,000 points today, and my team is almost at 1,100,000. :D

glad to have found such a hospitable place as this one. I was having issues fitting in and many forums dont want another folder from another team hanging out in there forums. I decided after getting the problematic GTX 295s to cruise over and check EVGAs forums out. And I asked several question within there folding thread. After several days with no replies I received a PM from a member of there folding team telling me I would find no help within there forums, because I was a traitor for folding with a team other than theres.
This kind of attitude in general has put a bad taste in my mouth.
Looking forward to building a rig to throw in and lend a hand with this team as well.

Haha not the first time i've heard of asshats at EVGA forums:rofl: Happens at large forums, this is why i don't want XS to get too popular...but it is inevitable...

Welcome FF! :up: Although this forum has been quiet, the members always try to help those that post here! :yepp:
is there a special ritual or custom that you guys do when you hit your 1000th Folding@home work unit?
i was somewhere up at 990 work units when i took a break from folding over a year ago, (was using a netbook and the heat on my palms was unbearable) and now that i have the gpu client its been munching through work units like real fast , like....
so after a day and a half of gpu folding, im already at my 998th WU, on the old SMP client i was using on my q6600 this number would have taken a month and a half to reach
