TPU's F@H Team

The PS3 has been shut down for the weekend, I will have it up and runnin on Monday as I like to give it a weekend break and start folding again for a week on monday.
 
joined today, will have 3 5770s up and running soon, but they will only be used for F@H when i sleep or dont use the rig, just like WCG

i might see if i can add a 4850
 
8800GTS (128 Shader) is making its inaugural run tonight. Will be going 24/7 replacing my 9600GSO :D
 
Is anyone on the team folding with an Evga GTX 275 co-op?
 
aint that the one with a 9800 card for physx?

Yep, it's a GTX275 for the display, and then a GTS250 (9800GTX+) for PhysX. I think someone over at OCN has(d) one that they get(got?) ~14-15k PPD with
 
lets just say g80/g92 chip? they rebranded that one soooo many times that its ridiculus:D

but i guess its good if you only got one pci-e port, but if you had 2 you coul might as well go with some older 88series card for pissix

I already have a system with 2 GTX 275's another with 3 GTX 260's and the other rig has a GTX 260, with one slot open. This would be for folding.:)

I've been looking at those. According to another review, you can fold on both cores. They are not available here yet, but could be an option if the price is sane.

The price also bothered me. I got a new one on ebay last night for $264 shipping included.
 
How long does it take to update badges normally? I've been looking at my 2 mil badge for way too long....
 
Oh, and my ppd will drop while my gtx260 moves from old home to new home. Will try to keep little 9800gtx folding close to 24/7 though... Going to need another 216sp 260, so keep that in mind all.
 
Going to be down for a bit to upgrade cooling and try sort out some wiring.
 
I've got a rig down that has 3 GTX 260 GPUs. After tearing it apart I've determined that I've got a dead PSU. I don't know how long I'm going to have this rig down as I'm short of cash.

That's about 24-26k ppd.:( What is the PSU?

60 amps on the +12v rail. The Corsair TX series has some good prices as well.
 
It look as though the GTX4 series will finally arrive in the coming weeks which raises a question. Is now the time to sell off GT2xx cards? They're going to start to loose resale value, is it too early or the right time now?
 
Yeah, sell them 260s cheap, I need one or 2 more! And yes, the corsair tx750 is a kickbutt little psu, couldn't live without mine! Also, I notice both me and bumblebee still don't have our 3mil badges, what up with that? Congrats on passing 3 mil thebluebumblebee! Looks like while my 260 is in transit, you'll pass me finally... Must get more 260s so I can catch up...
 
Thunder storms here, shutting it all down for the next 3hours or so.
 
sorry for the extended period of no points:(

Got new drivers in and making sure she is stable currently. If all is good her 285 goes back on full time at least;)

On the same promo listing I was actually considering this one...

I would have to go on a diet for a week to buy the corsair but with the antec I might be able to keep chowing down.:rolleyes: At least I've got until the 10th but I won't be able to hit the buy button until the 8th.
