24hr temps. All fans at full except my cpu fan. I thought they were quite good considering there's some dust build up on the gpu and the ambient in my room this afternoon must of been 24c or more.

nice temps and welcome back.

Computer number two will be up late next week, parts were shipped out 12am this morning. I'm all excited and it's not even mine lol

Computer 2 is now running. It'll be an on and off thing for the first week until everything gets installed on it. But for tonight it will be on until I wake up to see how stable the rig is as a whole. Now I can relate to your big scores (PPD). The gts250 will finish 1% in under a minute and it takes my 4850 wich is overclocked to the max 3-4 minutes to finish 1% of the WU. WTF! I'm making like 2300PPD with ati and 6300PPD with nvidia...

yep nvidia rocks for folding.I can play crysis,ra3,sims3,with very little slowdown on my 260 while folding with the newest drivers.

what is the specs for computer 2?

I put a Athlon X2 7750BE (2.7GHz) with some G.Skill ddr2-1066 ram and a BFG GTS 250 OC in there. Sadly with some overclocking if need be my little bro will have a faster computer than mine.

I wont have a problem running both close to 24/7 come September when school starts. That's pretty much when I did the majority of my folding last time too. I stopped once I was done my 1st year.

Oh yeah I can play any game and whatnot while folding on ati, it's just that it's not even close to the same PPD output as nvidia no matter what.
As a matter of fact computer 2 should be done it's first WU by now lol.

hey any idea why my card isnt supported. i know its 'too old', but what is it about the card, or what is it that it cant do compared to the nvidia 6xxx and over?

the gpu program makes use the nvidia cuda and ati cal support.

pity...well on a more positive note, i got F@H on my grandparents laptop. its about 25% slower than my computer and its set at 65% cpu usage, but its still something.

So I wake up this morning and computer 2 decided to go to sleep 30 minutes after I did so it got no folding done at all lol. I forgot to adjust all the power settings on win7 after I installed it. But at least everything is up and running now and it seems to be running alright. Damn nice rig, makes me want to buy a whole new one again.

How many points would a crappy Acer get:
Intel(R) Celeron(R) M CPU 430 @ 1.73GHz
1.50GB RAM
Vista 3-bit
x86 Family 6 Model 14 Stepping 8, GenuineIntel

Per day?

i dont know, but im completing one work unit on average every two weeks on my p4 3 ghz. mind you, the usage is at 100% and im on all the time. if youre worried about deadlines, dont be. theyre about a month long or two.

from what i can find it would be about 50 if left on 24/7

yeah sounds about right when compared to my computer.
