    I'm waiting on an x550 video card from eBay to come in, then I can get my Arima [The Beast] up and crunching. I'd like to extend Super Computer Week to another week...or month...or just a push to 20mil...

    Not the best cooling on this rig, but it's a strong little chip!
    Temps were looking good, so I upped the multi to 19x (almost certain it'll still send good results).
    Hell 4.0 would probably be stable, but I wanna make sure my points count....

    So put this one at 3.8 Ghz....

    At this point, I'd be happy if the team to hit 18M for a day!

    Just trying to do my part...

    Hehe, i bet. But then again i'm saving money on heating.. The first thing i tossed from my computer room was the electric heater mounted on the wall beneath the window. "-Won't be needing this sucker anymore!"

    If my 'puters can't keep me warm, they ain't doing their job :P
    I like to imagine that just heating my room contributes to science.

    That's my philosophy too, why by electric heaters when a PC will do the same job while crunching. We rebuild our attic this summer, adding two more rooms and there's no heaters installed here just 6 PC's crunching. But temps in the kitchen and living room downstairs has dropped after we opened the sealing to put in the stairs so I need a few PC's down there too.
