2011 Chimp Challenge has started!!!

Only 9.72 Chimp Points behind 1st place as of 5AM PST! Fold everything you got!
 
How do you know its a -bigadv?
 
smp:6056,gpu:11294
 
Sorry guys I got up this morning and my rig had shut off sometime last nite:banghead:
running now
 
9.70 points behind as of 8:49 AM PST!
 
...and I can't get my 2nd rig going, starts and then shuts off! :cry: I already swapped PSU's. Maybe the board died, if that's the case, consider it out. :(
 
Two heavily OC'ed GTX470s going up bringing me to 4x9600GSO, 1x9600GT and 2xGTX470. I hope they last.

EDIT: A heck, I'll just read books. 990X joining the fray and even the 8400GS rejoining. I am folding on every single thing I got across 4 rigs. I just hope my PSU survives, lol.

EDIT2: It is getting hot in here, faaast.

I wish I had an aircon (or a basement). But at least it is a cool evening. Very uncharacteristic for this time of year, but I'll take all the help I can get :D

I have never been to the motherland (Israel) b4...why no basements? is the water table high or soemthing?

I rent a small studio apartment, so no basement for me. Plenty of houses have them, but basements are still not as common as in the USA for example.

They also tend to be bomb shelters first, basements later and thus need to be kept clear of junk.
 
Sacrificed my MagicJack rig for the w-end to free up an internet connection. Just added a i7 875 @ 4.2GHz and a ATI 5850 for the final push. :toast:

Very nice! Come on FOLKS...ummm there is some TPU pride at stake amidst all the potential good thats being done here!:toast:
 
Out of monitors here, so I will just have to trust the Xeon is still chugging along...it has been the most rock steady this entire week. :laugh:

EDIT: 5850 proved to be unstable so I replaced it with (2) 8800 GTS. Are all ATI cards this much trouble folding?

Man I wish I still worked in retail. Back in my days at compusa i would have installed the F@H client on all PCs on the sales floor to help with something like this, don't we have anyone that works at a retail store that can hook us up for the last 24hrs? :)

I had thought about going to Rent A Center and picking up 3-4 and return them after a week...
