    Another contest as in a brand new one? Different or same sponsor? Either way, that would be awesome, though it is harder for me to get around now that i sprained my ankle on friday.

    Ooh... that is tricky! the little t...

    Haha, nice catch on that IFMU, I wouldn't have even thought of that!

    Congrats on the PSU Pulsar - Sure you'll put it to good use with that SR2 build. Just make sure to load it up and pass me faster on GPUGrid.

    xxRabid - good job. Congrats on the Heatsink! Got any plans for it?

    Burninator - Hope you feel better!

    As for my plan for the case - I'm going to put my current i7 in that as it's a much better case than what I've got now, upgrade the PSU and graphics sometime this summer to Fermi hopefully. Then use this old case and the 260 in it currently for my brother's build. (hopefully a X6 Phenom)

    It was great to compete against you guys in this.

    And whenever the next one comes up, I'm definitely in!


    24 hour prime stable? Please, I'm 24/7/365 WCG stable!

    So you can do Furmark, Can you Grid???

    SWEET!

    It's gonna get harder for me to compete in about 3 weeks cuz I'm moving to Cali for the summer. Not nearly as many connections there and don't know the area...

    But sure gonna try!

    Is this a regular thing?

    Trying to find an apartment near the beach that isn't too expensive, but it's proving difficult.

    Thanks, I'd be passing you on grid already if my E760 wasn't so picky with BOINC and SLI Lets hope the SR-2 isn't the same way. Maybe getting GTX 480's will fix that Good luck on your move to Cali its a whole different place lived their a couple years ago. Be prepared to beef up that wallet to fold/crunch on their electric rates.

    Congrats Otis and Pulsar! Wow, like you said Otis, that little t...

    Anyways, i'm not sure what i'm gonna do with the cooler. I probably will use it as air cooling and testing for my benching rigs. Maybe for a folding rig, though it might be too tall for the case, but a dremel can always fix that. If it performs better than my Megahalems, then i will replace the Mega with it in my main rig, and use the Mega for the benching and folding rigs.

    I'm definitely looking fowards to the next comp.

    Sorry for the delay in updating, but I contacted Thermaltake and have given them each persons info. Think it was sunday or monday roughly. Had a bit of a hard time getting back in contact with them...
    I am unsure if they will contact you with shipping info or not yet. I will try to find out at least when the prizes are sent out for yea.

    I just got mine today.

    Now I have an empty case... That's just not acceptable.
