Waco Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 (edited) $500 electric bills have caused me to cut down the amount of rigs I have running during the summer months. In the summer tha AC and pool eat up my folding energy budget. ~6000 kWh per month? Jesus...what the hell do you have running in your house?

road-runner Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 You hit 250,000 PPD the other day! A couple of rigs? Cheers Paul Those new big WUs rock, average around 25,000 ppd with the bonus with an i7 at 3.8Ghz or more. I got 7-i7s running now, 2-8800gt and 4 quads. Had 8 i7s running but sold one yesterday. I could turn on another 100,000 ppd but I am waiting on winter time for that... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IVIYTH0S Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 (edited) This is my favorite for our statistics (who's that snazzy fellow with the 12th spot) My Q9450 folds nonstop and then I add on whatever video card I have, but never folded with my 4870x2 while I had it. I occasionally use my laptops 9600M GT if I want to get a little extra push. I haven't folded on my PS3 in a few months now since my dad says that makes a huge impact on our electric bill, but since my computer is used alot he doesn't mind.

Waco Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 ...but never folded with my 4870x2 while I had it. Mine folded pretty damn nicely...it just ate a lot of power doing it. Getting the second GPU to fold wasn't too horrible; it just took a bit of effort. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting the second GPU to fold wasn't too horrible; it just took a bit of effort. ya I was too lazy to get the second core running, I tried 2 different methods with setting GPU flags in the shortcuts and neither worked for me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didn't make much sense but it worked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
