It was on a four layer stompy stack but i gave away the other bits to other forum members in need. that one continued till the psu died and my brother had the remains and gave it a beige home!
Anyone still using GTX460's for folding?

I'm sorry, I've been wondering since the first time you said it. What do you mean by 'stompy'?
Stompy, aka the Stompmonster, was built after donations from OcUK members, as a "supercomputer" for distributed computing on seti projects. http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18485338
In days of old, when someone overtook another in seti land it was referred to as a stomp, as in you were trampling all over them as you kicked them out of the cell they inhabited relegating them to a dungeon below. If you were generous, and followed etiquette wanted to taunt them when a stomping was impending, you gave them a parp (posted a warning thread). And of course if you wanted to show someone respect, you might call them "sah", rather than "sir", sah being a play on seti at home
Please remember is is a henious offence if you turn your computer "not on", and that could give result in you receiving punishment for slacking from spanky. Hope that's clear as mud.

The 460 was pulling over 19K PPD earlier 
Absolutely fantastically happy with that buy

I can only find this one pic of the leftovers of my mini stompy in action, buried under my old desk!

I wish I still had the pictures of my old AMD X2 farm. I had 10 rigs running and most of them were ghetto like the above (If you have 7 rigs with no cases you can use the money you save not buying cases to build another rig
