I could probably use that. My 500w is cutting it very close with my two cards and a i7 now. I haven't even tried it with the i7 but for some reason im thinking it's not gonna be enough. What do you all think?
 
I have a CoolerMaster 600w sli ready psu, if someone is in need of one, just pay shipping and its yours.
pm my me.

You need it more than me, so if you take it what you going to do with the 500W?

My friend just told me he wants me to build him a high end gaming rig so he's going to give me some of the components from his old rig.

I'll have a C2D E8400, EVGA S775 mobo not sure which one, and two 8800GT's. That can do some folding and crunching but I'll need a PSU and a HDD. That's why I ask. :toast:



EDIT: My Christmas present to you guys is my 3rd rig is back online :toast: Merry Christmas fuckers, TPU TO DA TOP!

If someone can use it. PM me.

If no one else takes it, I'll take it. But i'm last on the list. If anyone else needs it, they definitely need it more than me

It's all you from what I see, unless something has been going on in PM's that we can't see.
 
I just feel josh is going to need it coz his 500W just won't cut it. Unless he wants to buy new one
 
Starting to build my fourth system for crunching, so I would take it, that is unless of course Josh needs it. I will be in need for it in a month or so, however if he needs it sooner the by all means ship it to him.

Ugh, I confused you guys, I just scrolled up and saw it was him who posted he needed it earlier. Sorry :( yeah I'll let Josh take it!
 
Btw, at what score do you get the Cruncher badge? I've crossed a 100k.

This is a team thread and I'm the first to say happy ho ho, don't want to knew how many time zones i missed.
 
just a couple lol :roll:
 
Hey guys, sorry i haven't been here with a update. I've been really sick over christmas. Woke up throwing up christmas morning and have been sick all weekend. I'll wait and see if my power supply can handle it. Others could use it before me i know so we will see.
 
Actually ya know what, i could probably use that PSU then forward mine on to whoever need's one for the cost of shipping.

Is the PSU this or is it this one? I could just use that extra 100W so im not running mine to it's max the whole time.
 
Apparently my rig hates me. It won't overclock no matter what I do. I figured I might pull another 300 Mhz, but to no avail. Oh well, the first gen Phenoms were shyte anyway.

the gen 1 Phenoms did suck and couldn't get much better then 2.4-2.5ghz if they weren't the 2nd stepping.(don't remember what it was called) you should be able to get alittle more out of yours. Could you post some pics of the bios so people maybe able to help you out?

I used to get sick with monotonous regularity. At first it was every February - like clockwork. Then it was twice a year, then 3 times - usually between December and March.

You probably don't have enough vitamin d-3. D3 is biologically active form. You need a rock bottom minimum of 400IU's per day. I was taking that and my blood tests showed that I was abysmally deficient. Now I take 1000 IUs. I think it works better than a flu shot.

If you take a supplement though, it HAS TO BE D3.

Vitamin D is used to make cathelicidins - peptides (short proteins) that contribute to your natural immunity.

You should also take a zinc supplement - just be sure to take mineral supplements a couple of hours apart since they tend to compete for the same receptors in your gut.

Virtually everyone is deficient in zinc (important for a healthy immune response) and magnesium (necessary for proper muscle function including vascular endothelium, heart, etc.)

Thanks for the great information in that post. Im pretty sure I know what the reason is though. Google k2 side effects. Yep those are the exact effects I was having. Its not even legal anymore so if ur looking for that high stick to weed k2 isn't worth it.
 
1 out of 4 shelves with a working rig. Just playing around with the OC, but should be done tomorrow to add another i7 950 to the team :D
 
Josh: Oh my. :eek: :eek: :eek: :shadedshu

Since you're being honest, I'm not going to bust your chops, but that seems like particularly nasty stuff.

Further testing is needed, but Scalzo says the symptoms, such as fast heart beat, dangerously elevated blood pressure, pale skin and vomiting suggest that K2 is affecting the cardiovascular system of users. It also is believed to affect the central nervous system, causing severe, potentially life-threatening hallucinations and, in some cases, seizures.

If you have any persistent symptoms, please see a doctor - under an assumed name if necessary.
