kingdingeling Posted September 29, 2009 Posted September 29, 2009 i would gladly trade bills with you andy, in a heartbeat...what else do you have besides 'tricity ? Hahaha! Got some gas for cooking / heating (although I have been living in a walk in freezer for the past couple of days... heater's been off), water... and a fair bit of Diesel actually Been running between Hannover and Rotterdam every couple of weeks, that's roughly 500km one way...

nickosha Posted September 30, 2009 Posted September 30, 2009 (edited) I think I'm going to start letting my hd4850 fold 24/7. Helping out and hopefully keeping my room a degree warmer. edit: on that thought, how do the thermodynamics work on electronics like GPU's. Wouldn't all the electricity used/wasted be turned into heat? Hmmm. If so, I'd only be getting like 200W of heat. Oh well Edited September 30, 2009 by nickosha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GabrielT Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 (edited) I dropped, my 9600GT exploded itself. Very much sadness, tried with XFX today and got nowhere because I had other things to do. If I can't get through I am gonna snatch up a 9600GSOor a 8800GT. Edited October 16, 2009 by gabrieltessin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cjloki Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 Hahaha! Got some gas for cooking / heating (although I have been living in a walk in freezer for the past couple of days... heater's been off), water... and a fair bit of Diesel actually Been running between Hannover and Rotterdam every couple of weeks, that's roughly 500km one way... well the sheila thinks i'm a nut for all the folding but i do it anyway....i give the tricity a break now and then by shutting one or two of em down for a few days but my only folding goal is to keep up with paul as best i can. we've been running pretty close together for nearly a year now and sometimes i can see him off in the distance up ahead.... hey i'll see ya on the book...!!

tjmagneto Posted October 16, 2009 Posted October 16, 2009 The last few days of folding have been really annoying for me. First: I finally tried to reinstall my second 275 after getting the AC cooler on it and the damn thing would not fit as the first card with the AC cooler is way to big to slide the second card in. It was supposed to but didn't. I love the noise level and cooling ability of the AC cooler but I can't SLI. Now what??? Is there a decent low profile air cooler or is it time to WC my system? Then yesterday: somehow, my video card downclocked for the day for whatever reason. I uninstalled the driver, ran driver sweeper and then reinstalled the driver. That fixed that problem. While I was fixing the video card, VMWare workstation went into a tizzy and I had to run a repair on that. Everything looks good this morning except I'm still upset about not getting my second card back in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy_Nate Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 It's been getting pretty cold here at night (well, not that cold, but cold enough to need heat). Looks like the 8800GTS and 9600GSO are getting a workout Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
