Damn 570s really do a number on 560s just over double the ppd per card. I really need to fold again but laptop folding is disastorus and with the temp sitting at nearly 40C I don't think I will set any of the other rigs in the house up. This bloody heatwave that is only just getting started is a killer.
Really need to get folding on two 560s and a 2500k again.

Man these spammers are geniuses...put (NO SPAM) in the thread title to hide the spam. It's brilliant. Hopefully this doesn't catch on...what if rapists wear signs that say (NOT A RAPIST)? They will be raping everybody! D:

I ordered a GTX 670 last night half to get both "main" rigs back in gaming order and prob more importantly to further boost my folding production or slow down skyrocketing of the power bill that has come from me firing up everything INCLUDING my girlfriend's old first gen i3 based Dell with a geforce 315 I found in it. ![]()
All I know is Newegg's 6/12 mo. no interest promos are a scary thing.

If I fire it all up I dont think I will be able to pay the power bill. Production would look awesome for the month. Would not have to run the heat at the house as long as the rigs are downstairs.
