HD-DVD would beat out Blu-Ray

IMHO, if HD-DVD had won, we'd have optical discs with capacities over 1 TB.

The 7770 is running on a 2600K system. I'm still using a 9800 Pro - AGP!
I have all of the parts, although I'm trying to figure out if I want to use the P280 case that I have or get the P100. Come on someone, I need a sale on the P100.

The P100 is available for $69.99 at NewEgg and Amazon. Seems like a good price

$70's not a bad price, I just want MOAR.
According to Pcpartpicker, it was $55 back at Thanksgiving. That's what I'm looking for.

WOW. Nice, HUGE case (super-mid my ___ ).
The P100 addresses many of the shortfalls of the P280. I wonder if Antec's trying to clear them out and bring out a revised version? Things like the 140mm fans from the P100?

 

[mx500torid]

Well they are bringing out the P380. Im curious what shortfalls? I love them. Huge roomy case and yea its a big as a full tower. I installed 2 fans in front and the 290x is running 68c folding on auto fan. Im not a big fan of doors but I can suffer. Plenty of clearance for a DH-15.

 

[thebluebumblebee]

"Shortfalls" might be too harsh of a word.
It hit me that it was a shame that, since it's called a "280," that it doesn't have 2 - 140mm fans in front (and also the top), especially since it's large enough to accommodate them. It's a very cavernous case, but if you happened to fill it, it couldn't keep its contents cool. The fan controller on the back and how power has to be run to it - is - just - wrong. It just seems to be another nice idea by Antec that's just not finished.
I still think the P280 is a wonderful case to work in. It has many of the features that I'm looking for in a case, like sound deadening, filtered ventilation, I/O that faces forward, not upwards - like Fractal Design and Nanoxia and clean looks.
At first glance, the P380 looks like they mashed a P280 and a H440 together. And failed.

Will you test out the new Maxwell for us

I'm thinking that the 128 bit bus is going to hurt that card with F@H. I'm expecting no better than 100K PPD, or roughly the same as the GTX 680/770. I almost sold off my 660 Ti, and I'm glad that I didn't.

I got a felling that PPD/W and PPD/$ is worse then 970 too. Too few PCIs anyway

@mx500torid , Check out the Thermaltake Core V41 for $45 Shipped that Peet has: Peet's Rock Bottom Deals!

 

[mx500torid]

I saw that but I dont think it has the room of the P280. I already ordered another one that 45 after rebate seemed to good to be true.

It's $65 at http://www.directron.com/p100.html
It's currently $60 (until 2/9) with a $10 MIR at Newegg. $5 isn't enough for me to process a MIR. I'm going to keep an eye on this and see if they do a promo code along with this.

Last time I got a case from Directron it was pretty badly beat up.... that was many many years ago though.

Can someone swing by Tallahassee and reset my rigs? Storm came through and knocked out the power. I won't be back until Sunday afternoon, so big ol' goose eggs for me until tomorrow.

I'd love to.

Currently for my GTX 670, I'm running Driver version 327.23
with the advent of the GTX970 on Tuesday, what driver version do you recommend to allow me to fold on both the 670 and 970?
I'm determined to hit 1,000,000 ppd before the Bigadv stops at the end of the month.

 

[revin]

Been getting over 100k lately
Last night on another WU I was about 120k

I did notice a small decline in PPD but shit happens. I have just been lucky on this trip away from my rigs. They all seems to still run after one week...and now we all know what happens

 

[thebluebumblebee]

Okay, I had assumed that prices on Newegg were fairly constant. I've been watching the P100's price everyday. Today's price has jumped $5 and they've added $5 shipping.

Version 340.52 is the sweetspot for Maxwell GPU's. Newer ones cost you PPD.

Thanks I'll get that one downloaded and ready

The first GTX 960 result is out - 150 K PPD max, power draw is yet to be defined https://foldingforum.org/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=27287

Just made it home and the rigs are coming online slowly. Lost all early return bonuses, so today/tomorrow will suffer for -bigadv. Did this really have to happen during the last week for -bigadv??? @mstenholm , there's nothing like watching your rigs crash from afar.
