That would be cool. When I get my stuff togather I will post it.

Bog, you still have a GX2 water block? PM me if you do, I might be needing it.

Yup, back to old owner eh

if you get the CPU from me bro i will add a 2nd GPU to my i7 ri. Just alittle something to think about

PM me a price, depending on how hot this thing runs I might need it, if I can keep it cool enough on air then ok, if not it's water time.

I'll let you know later today bro.

Loving those GTX460 PPD results

CP, as long as you extend the display, set 2 clients with their flags and machine IDs you're good, I don't have a dummy plug on the GTX260 (w/ my friend ATM under XP)

I figured since that's how I ran my dual 8800's. However, if I keep a 8800, that'll be three clients, wouldn't I need the dummy dongle still?

Yes, you will need a total of two. Either one on the GX2 or two if you decide to run the 8800GTS as your main card.

Hmm, I'll have to look into that, I saw a guide on here. For now when I get the GX2 which unfortunately won't be today I'll just go ahead and run the GX2 alone till I figure out how to add the 8800GTS.

This will be my last OC'ing of my GTX 460 at least for today. As for wattage that would have to be a no. I got the core above 850 and the shaders at 1705. I believe the two are tied together at a 1:2 ratio. You'll notice the max reading for the fan is 70%. I've seen this mentioned several times in other forums. Once this WU completes I'm going to remove the -oneunit switch and let it run to see if I get any failures.

More GTX 460 Testing
OC Settings (as reported by EVGA Precision)
Core: 853 MHz
Shader: 1705 MHz
Memory: 1902 MHz
Fan Speed: 70%
GPU Temp: 57C

TPF: 00:00:49
PPD: 10,774

I don't think you need dummy plugs in XP. In XP, you can extend the display without dummy plugs (at least I could). The only reason you need them in Vista/7 is you can't extend the displays to nothing

EDIT: Loving that PPD

 

[Chicken Patty]

Yeah but what about the 8800? Wouldn't that at least need a dummy? Or would just the extended display allow me to run three clients?

 

[hat]

I thought you no longer needed dummy plugs after a certian driver release?

 

[Chicken Patty]

I honestly have no clue hat. New to folding and messing around with nvidia.

 

[NastyHabits]

With the new drivers (191.* and up) you no longer need to use dummy plugs. You still have to have one card attached to a monitor however.

Thanks for clearing that up. In my case I will have one of the cards plugged into a monitor so that won't be an issue. Whenever I can get the GX2 I'll set that one up first and then go about the 8800. One thing at a time, no need to rush it. I'll handle it as I need to.

 

[Chicken Patty]

Guys, I got this EK Block for the 5770 I'm going to be selling. I bought this of johnnyfive in great condition but will wind up not using it. If anybody needs it I'll offer it at a discount for a folder in need. let me know, PM me if interested. It's going up tonight for sale.

Multiple nVidia clients are pretty easy. I don't think you need dummy plugs, but it couldn't hurt to try if things aren't working. I do think you have to disable SLI though.

And is up with those random quotes in your sig?

I can't figure out how to remove them

Oh

Well good luck with your new cards

do you guys think my Seasonic 620w will run a 8800GT and 8800GTS without problems?

do you guys think my Seasonic 620w will run a 8800GT and 8800GTS without problems?

Easy

My XFX 650w (SeaSonic) runs my i7 860 @ 3.8ghz, my GTX260, and GTS250. It gets a bit loud, but not too bad.

Is this a G92 or G80 GTS? The G92s use less power IIRC, but either should be fine

G80.
I am going to be running
i7 920@3.9ghz@1.25v
8800GT@700/1700(C/s)(watercooled by D-Tek fusion)
8800GTS(not sure about clocks yet)(water cooled by EK full cover)

 

[[Ion]]

Absolutely. My PSU is basically identical to yours internally IIRC. And the GTS250 uses more power than the 8800GTS, and my GTX260 uses far more than your 8800GT. And our i7s should be about the same

 

[bogmali]

Another easy answer......Yes......if my Corsair TX650W can run (4) GTS-250 and P-II 940 I'm sure that 620W will be just fine.
