I am planning to put a Zalman CNPS 9700 on this baby.
I know its not dust because this is the first time i have used this heatsink all fan speed control is disabled i am also using MX-2 TIM

Guys/Gals of the TPU WCG Team- you're brethrens next door (F@H) need your help. If you have some spare hardware that is just laying around or currently not being used, lend them those wasted power and fold for TPU. We currently have a challenge from another great forum (Hardware Canucks) and they could really use all the help they can get. PM myself, El Fiendo, or Buck Nasty if you have any questions

Here is the link to the thread:

Yeah I saw that too but like you found out it is only for those two projects. If it were able to do the other WUs it would be tempting to let one of my GPUs crunch for a little instead of fold...

after 47 posts today, i'm outta this one. HOw the hell do I post so much

Anyhow, in case you guys notice my #'s a little low everyday, it's because I am stability testing over night. I'm trying to pinpoint my random reboots at anything over 4-4.1 Ghz. I mean shit, lets say its not stable, but it would at least boot up. I ran wprime @ 4.5 Ghz without a hiccup, and now 4ghz won't even boot. Either something is going, or i'm doing something wrong that I was not doing wrong before. Gnight ladies.

your biostar blew. how nice im careful to mine to not let happen the same

@CP
you know that sounds like an overheating issue?^^
do you have another psu? slowly i get to the point,where i just can say:
If the Heatkiller dont brings you improvements,and all volts are sufficient,
your board has some knack,or your proc is a monday model.

remember cooling the mosfets. they get dead hot on me, and are probably one of the things responsible for crashes after a long time crunching

OK guys. I need someone to convince me that it's ok to leave my 3 crunchers going while I'm camping for the next 3 days. I hate the idea of keeping them running when no one will be here to check on them while we are gone, but I just got them back up...I'd hate to shut them down for days again.
