Well the price is sure enough right....

**fart_plume** · 07-02-2008, 07:57 PM

Yeah, and it's a start into water cooling, i can upgrade parts a little at a time ........

**karl_eller** · 07-02-2008, 08:09 PM

I'll hopefully be ordering a Q6600 on Monday, so by the end of next week, I'll have a 24/7 cruncher/file server up and running.

By the way, has anyone seen DDT around?

I need to go buy another wireless card so I can run a third quad system. It'll be a 2.9-3.0ghz phenom, but its a quad so its good

.

**karl_eller** · 07-02-2008, 09:11 PM

Hmm how much are wireless cards these days? It'd certainly make life easier if you don't have to worry about running an ass-load of Cat5 from each rig to a switch/router/hub/whatever. Of course, then you'd have to worry about how many simultaneous connections your access point can take.

**loonym** · 07-02-2008, 09:43 PM

I don't even bother with the cards anymore. The little usb sticks are just so convenient and easy to swap around.

**[XC] serlv** · 07-02-2008, 09:57 PM

I have a Sunbeamtech Core-Contact Freezer coming in, just ordered it from CrazyPC.. Never used one before, but it looks extremely promising.

and I ordered an MSI P45 Neo3-FR and PC P&C 610 Silencer ( thanks Sierra Bound for the heads up on the deals on these two ).

I already have an MSI P35 Neo2-FR and a Xigmatek HDT-S1283
waiting. So I'm just about ready for some inbound chips.

Got to pump up the power!

It's been a long time since we had a 6 million point day.
How about we see if we can pull one off sometime over this holiday weekend.
Maybe someone has a rig down that can go up for a few days.
A little "push" here and there and it's doable.
Besides, think how nice it would be to see 6,000,000 posted in this thread.

**D_A** · 07-03-2008, 12:31 AM

Not nearly as nice as it would/will be to see that you've overtaken sleazeynews. Now THAT will be cause to crack a bottle of the good stuff!

I have had a bottle of Dom Perigon in the bottom of my fridge that cost me $124.00 for almost 2 years that will be opened and guzzled down like a pig at a trough on the day that happens..and it will..

nehalem may well be a partial answer to EasyNews depending on cost, availability and how we use it vs how other teams do.

**Jaco** · 07-03-2008, 02:42 AM

let's break it down :

FP : 1 quad and 2 dual cores
Serlv : 2 quads (Q9550 i guess)
jcool : 2 quads
Oldguy : 1 quad
Karl : 1 quad
Myself : 1 Q9550
...

**jcool** · 07-03-2008, 02:47 AM

C'mon guys, only 1 quad missing

I guess I could fire up the X2... but its radiator is just too weak at these temps I'm afraid, bah. Maybe some stock clock crunching at 1,1V eh

reinstalled boinc this night, so that is one quad.. oh and swapping the E8400 for a Q6600 tonight so that will be two. just dont tell anyone that I've been evil and not crunching for a while *hides in shame*.

**[XC] serlv** · 07-03-2008, 04:31 AM

I believe DDT is just about to put up #50, so that would be another one.

**Movieman** · 07-03-2008, 08:09 AM

We'll get there..
