Balancing power is difficult! In order to conserve power while crunching and folding I do not run AC or leave any TVs running. Its really hot too, but if the comp can take it I guess I can too.

i live in the basement, so temp isn't an issue.
But even when im folding, at night i turn the gfx up, i'll usually bump the clock speeds to try and crunch extra at night, the problem is i want to tighten my ram timings, but im running on 1GB of ram for now. SO im afraid i might be loosing the stick soon, so im taking her easy. Plus solar energy helps as well. Remember GO GREEN!

Will have to turn down my folding, multiple crashes and blue screens in one day tells me this mobo is about done. I'll pick it back up when I replace the mobo ect. My server is still folding, so I'll still keep adding points!

Hey, you can afford to take a rest there. You snatched 10th place the other day, which is pretty damn good. I seem to recall you were hitting limitations due to heat and costs, but you blasted into the top ten. At any rate, hope you get things sorted straight.

My old P4 finally died. I'm waiting to hear from EVGA about a trade-up to a 250. (I bought a new 6800 for my P4.) It's going to cost me $40 and I'll be doubling my production. Should raise me to 5000-6000 per day.

OK. I'm finally going to commit to consistent folding. It's well overdue after so many folders joined the WCG team. By the end of the week, I'll have 3 gtx260's going full force.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I also want to remind everyone to please consider crunching you CPU's for the WCG team. CPU's are more efficient at Crunching than Folding. We will also have crunchers adding their GPU's to Folding @ Home in the next few weeks. As you can see, this greatly benefits both teams. You may even have a shot at El Fiendo's coveted Pie and MPA's El Fiendo's F@H Pie and MPA's

It was the mobo, not the CPU that failed. But thanks anyway!

How do intel cpus crunch oced? I guess heat is a bit of an issue? Sorry, I'm researching the heck out of this new intel system I'll be running. I'm hoping for higher ppd out of my 280 as well... must make points!
