You're right, I'm overly pessimistic about these things. If we can hit #3, even once, I will be ecstatic

Call AMD and tell them that we can "test" their upcoming 89xx gpu's for them

2x 8970's for every active Team member should go a long way!

I'm glad to hear it

Recently I've gone a bit overboard with the natural scenes--but I like something to make the Daily Numbers more exciting

Absolutely, what you an when you can. I haven't even looked at my electric bill since I started, but I'm gathering it should be higher. Funnily enough, my wife hasn't complained yet

Try to avoid crunching on the GPU then, or set lower GPU/mem clocks (idle clocks for example) with a program like Afterburner. Setting up a custom WCG device profile might help as well, setting the amount of cores down to, say, two and lowering the maximum load percentages. Helping your parents to pay the bills may also be a good gesture towards them.

the money isn't actually the problem, I think he just thinks its a waste. I already did offer to pay the bill but he refused. we are a 6 figure income family, 10cents per kWh here... lol

He's just stubborn about it and it's his house
