It's a older type car fuse. If I remember right. I'll try and snap some photos later when I'm at his place.

Solaris. I have a modded Antec Smart power 350w it looks kinda bad but runs great. For $13 it can be yours(cost of shipping and 2 or 3 for gas )

@CP did you get that sent out to me? i hate not having my i7 or x2 working on something and can't get on TPU much because i don't have internet

I will be gone this weekend and the computers have no work to do because they can't download any looks like they are taking the weekend off.

You could just use a tiny bit of super glue and regular TIM, should you get a heatsink for it

I've got two questions...
(1) I need a reasonably priced 550-650 watt PSU... PM me if ya have one. I'm almost finished with my dedicated cruncher. So far I have Phenom II x3, M3A79-T mobo, V8 cooler in a HAF 932, I also need a GPU that will get me buy till I can buy a Nice one.
(2) I have 313,000 Pts. so far and hope to sky rocket that once my dedicated cruncher is up. But, I don't know how to get the WCG badge at the bottom of my post like most of you guys have. I heard that after 200,000 pts I could get one. Who do I talk to about that?

I was telling Kant before he sold you the board, that if you really wanted a heatsink on it you can measure the diagonal distance between the holes to see what size you need, OR my option would be to use a RAM SINK from a GPU and some thermal adhesive

Most Ram heatsinks that are used on the mem ICs on GPUs are short, but you can always modify them if nec

I can mail you a little piece of thermal tape too if you need it. Got some from Marvel a while ago

Well one strip should be enough, here is a pic that shows you the length and width. Just PM me your address and I will get it mailed in a std envelope to you

Size reference of the single strip:

Hello,

you are added to the list for the PSU.

As far as the badge, you need 700,000 points to get it. Once you reach that you can just go to your USER CP and look under "Misc." and input your WCG username there and it'll show automatically.
