Hey guys. Hope all is well. Just wanted to pop in and let you know that I have a 300 GB Seagate IDE HDD that theonedub sent me when I was going through a rough time with funds. I would like to pass it on to a cruncher in need. If your in need of a HDD for one of your rigs, let me know by way of PM or this thread. It will be sent free of charge... just like I got it from dub. ;) US only please.

Hopefully I will be back up and crunching soon. Still recovering (funds wise) from my move for work a couple of months ago. Cant believe how expensive crap is nowadays. Its highway robbery I tell you. :mad:

I'm still in need of an AM2/AM2+ CPU.

Also hope everyone has a good 2011. I hope that we step it up more this year in crunching power(that would be nice)

Also in the next month or 2 i will be moving again. This time it will be with the gf :) I never thought i would be ready to take that step at this age but i welcome it lol


EDIT:
Just a note to anyone that has my addy from the past get rid of it. I am no longer there and will not get anything that is sent there.


@BLK moving isn't fun bro. I wish you the best :toast:

you both are still here and you both are still kicking, and havent given up just yet

much respect :respect::respect::respect::respect::respect:

I have this motherboard in my for sale thread here

[FS][US] Watercooling & parts, parts, and more par...

Now if this motherboard does not sell, I am going to be in need of a CPU and video card and will just put this system together and start crunching with it.

I am on a very tight budget for the next couple of months, so a cpu and video card as cheap as possible would be great.

Thanks in advance.

Well I am thinking that I will just end up building a crunching rig with it. If I can find a cpu and video card really, really cheap:laugh: then I will just go that route.

If I get my 1155 board today, I'll start putting the 2600k rig together. So I'll have an Asus Crosshair IV Formula + 1090T combo for sale. One member is interested but I've giving him a chance to mull it over, so he gets first dibs until tomorrow. But if not, then I have a couple questions.

1. Do I put the gear in the regular FS forum? Because the price I would want here is going to be about 15% less than what I would want there.

2. Do I need to post pix and such as per the FS forum rules? Or can I give links to the gear with full specs?

That combo sold on ebay for $410 recently. So you can get an idea of what I'd be looking for.

Thanks for the assistance. I need to defray my costs for the new rig to some extent but I want to give crunchers a good deal too.

I'll also have a Phenom II X4 940 in a week or 2 with an ECS black edition m/b. Nothing super but it seems pretty solid. I can give more info if there's any interest.

I understand that, but I'm only offering it to crunchers at a pretty decent discount. I'm not putting in FS at this point if I can find someone here who wants it.

Help!:confused:

When I open BOINC and then open the Prefs, it opens that window on my screen to the side(Monitor2). Even when I disable Monitor 2 it still opens there. I can see a tiny slit of the window on the right side of Mon 1 but i cant grab it or "right-click -> Move" from the taskbar. I have to enable Mon 2 just to close/move the window:mad:. I can't do anything with BOINC until that Prefs window is closed.:banghead:

Is there a Reg entry or something that will make it open on Mon1?

I was just wondering cause I never remember seeing you in the WCG or F@H team threads, thats all. When I searched for your username nothing comes up in either DC effort. You should start back up, every bit helps :toast:

I was thinking of installing it again on my HTPC once its finished. i was getting the CPU for it and i have some DDR2 and x300 PCIex card so all i really need now is a Small AM2+ board to run the CPU and i will probly let it crunch 24/7 with the 350W PSU i have

Anything is very welcome :)

Even a single core, case in point, I have a 1.7ghz Pentium M that was on all of the time so I decided why not crunch? ;)
