All I have is nV cards, so I'm going to stick w/ FAH for now, but if I get some ATI cards in the future, I'll join.

Totally understandable. But maybe in the future when things get going, if a few people would join, I would build a AMD farm, even 5770's do amazing at it!
 
Sure thing, I'm considering a HD5670 for the AMD X4 (or a GT430), if I get an ATI card, I'll definitely do that.

Hell, I might even see what the HD4200 can do :roll: :laugh:

That one works decently too at DNETC@HOME if I'm not mistaken.
 
HD5670? It could be interesting to see what the HD4200 could do...might do a k or 2 :roll:

bro if a 5770 does over 240k PPD, the 4200 has to do at least 10 or 15k :confused:?
 
Well, IIRC the HD5770 is 800SP. The HD4200 IIRC is 40. So that's 1/20th of the shaders, let's assume same clocks (probably not) so that's 12k. Maybe like 8k once clocks are accounted for.

Not bad for a GPU :roll:

Not at all :p
 
'specially one that's ~10w :p
 
CP, if you do start a team for that, maybe I'll put my 5770 to use. :D
 
That would be cool :toast:

Let me thin it over. The only reason why I don't run the card on the main rig is because it's a BFG PSU. You'll know I'm fucked if that thing goes, so I try to limit it to just the CPU. But maybe me and you can start it up with your card and my 5870. :toast:
 
Wow...I've crunched a little over 1,000 points today :eek: My numbers keep going up, and I don't know how! Help, my computers are doing too much work! :laugh:
 
Nice :)

My parents decided that they wouldn't let me loan out my system to my friend in case something happened to it :mad:. So it's only folding/crunching part-time, the X4 is messed up...so my PPD isn't going to be nearly as nice as it might have been for now :shadedshu

No PPD from the X4 for now, and the i7 is only going to be crunching ~14 hours a day :mad:

At least I have the rigs @ work going to supplement my PPD :ohwell:
 
[Ion], when you are old enough to move out, drop me a PM if you feel like living on the west coast. ;)
 
Bad news guys, my points are going to be way down for the day, I've been playing a lot of games today, and not so much crunching. :ohwell:

Edit- Crap, now a thunderstorm is rolling in, shutting down the rigs for the night and unplugging them.

It happens bro, weekends are usually lower # wise so it's the best time to play some games. :laugh:
 
Strangely, that thunderstorm that I talked about earlier has died done now, still gunna leave the rigs off tonight just in case.

Better to be safe than sorry. Take it from a person who will leave them on :eek: :roll:
 
I don't even have mine on a surge protector yet:confused:

Gladly :)

I've actually done extra crunching this weekend...busier w/ homework than normal, so less gaming :p

Bad idea my friend ;)

I believe that this is the best day I've ever had under my own power:

And, best of all, this is without the X4 955 or the C2Q....so still room to go, even w/ less crunching time on the i7 :rockout:
